Factbook


A new website found is called www.factbook.com. I think this website is very interesting and it can also be very educational. Factbook is a website of all different places in the world and it give information about that country. The information that it gives is the capital, largest cities, population, languages, natural resources, religions, cell phone users, internet users, and more. I think that this is interesting because you can look up any place and find out all that information. It is crazy how many people use cell phones all over the world! I’m going to show you all that information for Kenya. Capital – Nairobi, largest cites – Nairobi and Mombasa, Languages – English and Kiswahili, Religions – Ethiopia, Somalia, Tanzania, and Uganda, cell phone users - 11,440,000 30%, internet users - 3,000,000. This is a good website if you are doing a school project on a country or you need to find information about certain countries. You don’t have to sign up to anything to use this website so you don’t have to give out all your personal information and I think that is a good thing. This website is also free for anyone to use and it is full of great information. In order to use this site all you have to do is at the top where it was a typing place and the search button right beside it, all you do is type in the country you want and it will find it for you and then you have all the information you need. So go check out the website and tell me if you like it or not!

www.friv.com

A website that I found is www.friv.com. It is a gaming website that has more than 250 games! There are all kind of games to choose from, there are cooking games, shooting games, dress up games, and many more other types of games such as puzzle games and games where you look threw things to find a certain item you are looking for, kind of like those I spy with my little eye books! This website is good for just about all ages of gamers. It is also a really safe website because you don’t have to sign up for anything and you don’t have to give out any of your personal information just to play a game. My favorite game on this website is called Bloons. In the game bloons they give you a certain amount of arrows and you have to figure out a way to try and pop the amount of balloons it tells you to, as you move on to the next level it gets harder every time. I think if you are into all sorts of games or even just specific games that you sound go to this website and check it out. This is also a easy website name that you can remember unlike some website names such as www.addictinggames.com young kids might have trouble remembering such a long name unlike www.friv.com it is short and easy, plus it is fun to say friv! So overall I think this is a good website to play games on for all ages, and for all people who like to play lots of kinds of games!

What is Web 2.0

Web 2.0 is where their is a creater of the web site, but the creater does not do all the work, people who are visiting the site can change things under the supervision of the creater. And there for anyone can add things onto the web page. The creater can remove anything that a person puts onto their web page that they don't think needs to be on there.
