Best of Blogs


Sherwin Siy, author of the blog post “Debating Three Strikes, Not the Problem it’s supposed to fix,” http://www.publicknowledge.org/node/2092, discusses the problem with that policy. The best aspect of his blog is that he maintains his topics current and provides background information. The way he writes is very clear and concise because he is an attorney. Most of the blog posts are law related and address many legal issues. Overall, the website is very easy to navigate through the different topics and has video guest speakers.

In Steve Adubato blog, “Take Tom Kean’s Advice on Higher Ed,” http://blog.nj.com/steveadubato/2009/03/take_tom_keans_advice_on_highe.html#more, he discussed the current issue about funding for higher education. Although, the blog is a little lengthy it is very well written. When I read his blog, I can feel the desperation about the school funding issue due to his careful selection of words. The website is very easy to navigate but the website lacks color and personality.

The content of the “Yes Men Strike Again” blog http://www.funnyordie.com/blog was composed by the FOD team. They address the controversial topic about petroleum and Exxon issues. The blog post was very elaborate with videos and provided good information. A very distracting aspect is the numerous advertisements. They are constantly changing ranging from the World of Warcraft to Rachel Ray.
