Never Judge a Site By it's Home Page


The Cultural Politics website does not exactly “POP”. When I first went to explore the site I was anticipating exactly what I associate with pop culture; paintings, famous actors/actresses, comics. The home page of Cultural Politics was more like what I would expect when going to read a computer manual. After looking at the large amount of subject matter covered on the site I was immediately impressed. Each link on the toolbar leads the user to more and more information. Easily a reader could sit and discover information for hours with the massive amount links given. I am already impressed with the many genres of film that I discovered, many of which I never knew existed. In looking at the website I also saw that fashion is considered pop culture. Prior to viewing the site I had no idea! I am very excited about this. I think overall the website is useful for GWST3030. It is user friendly and is jammed packed with resources that would take the average internet user weeks to discover searching the internet on their own. Like other users I am apprehensive how often the website is updated with current data. In combination with current trending articles I believe that the Cultural Politics website will be very useful for us this semester.
