Today’s class in human geography was a pretty interesting
one. We talked about how to tell if a website’s information is legit. We learned that we should never use encyclopedias
and opinions. Then he showed us some ways to tell just by looking at the
website. After looking on one page we went on a little thing about a guy living
in his mom’s basement. Then we looked at the CIA website, and then we were
shown how to save a link to it on our blog. After that we made a little joke
about how the guy in the basement had a design guy chained in the basement. The
New York Times or a news website like CNN can be used as long as it isn’t the
opinion page. Finally we were shown not to trust blogs of any sort. I
especially don’t trust that SchickHumanGeo Blog, I don’t just it one bit, who
is this Schick guy anyway. Otherwise it was a pretty fun class and we started
to learn a bit.
