Effective/Engaging Hypertexts

Bonnie Given's first original hypertext on homosexuality was fascinating. While I do not know a lot of homosexual individuals I found this hypertext an interesting, organized, and informative piece that provided real life accounts that made a stronger impact that brought to light the importance of accepting people who may be considered different in society.

Andrew Agcaoilis "I Resign" hypertext was very innovative and provided a lot of information jam packed into one website. However, this did not appear to simply be ONE website. I thouroughly enjoyed his idea of creating two worlds in one hyptertext and generating contrasting thoughts that seemed to diverege not only in the material provided but in the site as well.

Margaret Hooper's hypertext on social networking sites was very compelling. I found this to be a great topic because it impacts and effects today's society--specifically our generation. The site posed relavent issues resulting from social networking sites and offered graphs and other statistical evidence to support her case.\

Mike Wong's hypertext on "The model minority" was very interesting and you could tell there was a strong personal investment in the work he did. His use of personal media and personal contribution made his work that much more engaging and his site was well organized.
