2339 in the night
Today I have to search for 4 other websites and classify them into different purposes of resource.
1st resource is electronic magazines at http://architecture.about.com/ . The purpose of resource is News. The reason being, the information display is being categorise in Architecture Ads, Topics such as design & build, Buyer’s Guide, Tools and Essential. There are different sets of information everyday, a constant update of news and information.
2nd resource is website at http://www.seksan.com/ . The purpose of resource is Business/marketing. The reason being, this website displays a list of project portfolio, resume, contacts of Seksan Design. Their works consist of commercial, township, hospitality, condominium, residential and park. It is trying to sell the design firm to the public by showing off their wonderful works.
3rd resource is journal at http://www.bldgblog.blogspot.com/ . The purpose of resource is Personal. The reason being, BLDGBLOG is written by Geoff Manaugh, sharing his personal thoughts of visualisation architecture to the public. This is his personal interest that he wants to share with the whole world about what will happen to architecture in the future.
Lastly the 4th resource is database at http://www.usarchitecture.com/ . The purpose of resource is Information. The reason being, this website gives information of anything that is related to architecture. It provides links to CAD software for drafting purposes, materials, flooring, ceiling, exterior wall, door, lightings etc. The link given will provide information on the category you chose to explore on.
Through the searching activity I have done today, I learnt how to categorise what is the purpose of the different resource. What a particular website offers what kind of information. It is important to differentiate the purpose of a resource so that you know what kind of information you are retrieving and whether it is revalent to you.
