Small Print Review 4


The site I used for my fourth Small print review is www.crystalinks.com. This site doesn't provide a clear stance on the subject of the Bermuda Triangle. Instead, it gives many different perspectives. "The boundaries of the triangle vary with the author; some stating its shape is akin to a trapezoid covering the straits of Florida, the Bahamas...others add it to the Gulf of Mexico." The article points out that the Bermuda Triangle was first discovered by Christoper Columbus in 1492, however the first incident in the U.S. wasn't documented in a newspaper until September 16, 1950. The article also gives possible natural explanations such as: hurricanes, gulf streams, freak waves, and even electric fog(?).

Overall, I think www.crystalinks.com was an okay site. The site is plain in design and the information isn't really grouped together in the best way. There are many headings on the website, they dont really correlate in any specific way. So, when you are looking at the site, it is confusing to follow. The site itself provides basic, repetitive information that I could've found on any Bermuda Triangle website.
