Evaluating Websites

I found that all of the sites used did not have the same information and one of them had better information than the other ones. Our class dicussions over the past two days have given me some new information and made it easier to find and evaluate a website for reliable information related to what I need to find.

Out of all the citing sources sites I liked EasyBib the best because it was easier to use than the other two. EasyBib made it a lot easier to cite the sources that I needed to.
