Presenting Information In Different Ways Using The Internet.


There are many ways in which you can present your information and data online, all of which you can use to spread your message or information. The first way is in a text based format and is used on virtually every website you would visit whilst on the internet, the most popular would be Wikipedia as it displays a lot of information through text and delivers the required amount of knowledge and detailed explanation you need. It also does use another form of presenting information but on a minor scale, which is the use of pictures and images to present information. The main websites which use this form of presentation are sites such as Google Images and the image search on Bing as it displays pictures that include the information you have asked for or relevant information from your search. Another popular way to present information is through the use of videos and flash videos that can be used to present the general persons view through sites such as YouTube and on a company website they put of videos that allow you to see the inner workings of the business and meet some of the employees as well as take a tour of the buildings or facilities, which brings me on to the next form which can be used is a flash based virtual program that is used today by some businesses so it allows you to take a tour of the building yourself and also by mobile phone websites such as Carphone Warehouse so you can have a full 360 degree view of the mobile phone to have maximum potential of the viewing stage of the product.

  1. Good use of imagery in this post. one point I would have is that it would be useful to have the text broken down into separate paragraphs but apart from that the blog is very good.

  2. You can also display information in different fonts, styles, colours, layouts and formats, depending on how you want your data to look, where you want it on your site.

  3. Although there are many ways to present information do you feel that the format (e.g. text, images, flash files) is depended on the target audience of the website? For example, CBBC would present more of its information in flash files and images rather than a site like The Times as it is aimed at a younger generation.
