My site of choice
The site I’ve chosen is the official website for the Kentucky Derby. Ok, so it’s a little bit random. Allow me to explain my choice. The site itself is probably not the most attractive layout you will ever see. In fact, the front page is crammed with information so it may seem a little bit overwhelming. However, it’s actually easy to navigate and has all the information you would ever want about horseracing and Derby in particular. I like horseracing and I follow it pretty closely, especially in the few weeks leading up to Derby. So first and foremost, it is designed to be a great resource and lays out the information right up front. You can easily navigate to updates, follow developing stories, watch recaps, read newspaper columns and editorials, look up history and find out information about actually attending. I’ve been to Derby the past few years and the site is a huge help. Additionally, it has video, audio clips, interviews, and photos, along with the textual information. It’s colorful, interesting and interactive.
