Reflections on your searching activity

1. Which search facility/ies did you use?

Googles, yahoo search tool

2. Write down all the keywords you had used for searching the resources. Identify those keywords that yield relevant or better search results.

Development of mobile devices, how much change in mobile devices, mobile devices, handphone.

3. What are the major differences amongst the three types of websites?

Personal blog is more personal, and they include their own example and sometimes, their own feelings. Organization is more detailed and they tend to just deliver the facts out, and that’s it. Subject website is more related to the topic among all three types. One obvious difference is also the way they type in the website. Personal website can be rather informal, unlike the other two websites.
