Web Evaluation
Site: EBAY
Date: 9/19/2013
My Web Evaluation consisted of 4 topics.
- Design
- Content
- Technical Elements
- Credibility
After reviewing the site, they earned a score of 94 out of 100! They were an overwhelming success in both their content and credibility but had some minor flaws in design and technical elements. This was due to their inability to make an app for hand held devices that fits the screen at all times. While they have a very good at app, at times its hard to navigate and can be hard to get all of the content on one screen.
Here is a copy of the Web Evaluation Sheet used to grade EBAY!

My favorite piece of the internet is definitely the ease of use and the search engines. With this ability, finding anything related to my hobbies, education or work are right at my finger tips. Without a doubt, this has drastically changed the way humans research and I think it is great.
We no longer have to spend hours searching through catalogs of information to only find out that we were looking in the wrong book. We now have the ability to directly search for anything we want and it will give us the most relevant information that it can.
Even scholarly articles for projects are now just clicks away, rather than hours of reading in a public Library. To me, its amazing how quickly the internet took over the research industry.
And I thought it would be cool to put up an optical illusion!!!

History of the Internet
The Internet has a very interesting but short history. Quite frankly, it may have a largest history record of any one idea in such a short time. Bob Kahn and Vint Cerf created the Internet Society in 1992 and are considered by most to be the Founding Fathers of the Internet.
Interestingly, the Internet was really a creation founded after nearly forty years of testing different networking solutions. For example, the world wide web itself was officially founded in 1991. Both Cerf and Kahn worked tirelesslly to try and discover what is now the worlds greatest invention. This effort is obvious, as they publish their first works about networking in 1974, 18 years before discovering the internet.
