The two websites i'm going to compare are National Geographic's website (www.nationalgeographic.com) and Mac Rumors (www.macrumors.com). First of all, when you load the page on your browsers, you can automatically notice that the interface is pretty different. On National Geographic's website you can easily see that the autor of the website engaged a graphist to conceive the interface whereas Mac Rumors is more "rough". Also, NG is a monthly distributed magazine and the people that write articles in it are reliable people, they are scientists engaged for this magazine. Mac Rumors, as the title of the site tells us, consist as rumors that normal people write because they heard it. The difference between informations given by normal people like us and scientists is easy to understand. That's the reason why we can't trust Mac Rumors informations.
In conclusion, when you look at a website, you can, at first view, see if it’s reliable or not cause reliable websites usually give a little bit of importance to the website’s graphism. You also have to look if the people who are writing the articles are people that really know the real informations.
