This website is a good example of objectivity. It is a good site for objectivity because it is designed to inform you about the sharks that live near Hawaii. Another sign that it is objective is that it is very detailed in the information that it gives you. Another sign that it is an objective website is that the author talks about both the possitives and negatives of having sharks around Hawaii. Another good sign is that the site shows only facts and no opinion about sharks which is another sign of objectivity. Last of all it does not try to sell you anything when you go to it and the website is not like an infomercial.

This website is a good example of currency. It is good, first of all, because it is up to date. It is an up to date website because it was either published or updated in 2011. Another thing that proves it has good coverage is the fact that the links compliment the page and all work correctly. This is a good sign because if the links do not work correctly then it could be a sign that the website is out of date.
