The Huffington Post...Your One Stop Shop For All That is News!
Today, I am going to talk about one of my favorite blogs that I regularly read, The Huffington Post (I have it on my "Bookmark Bar" on my mac!) I enjoy reading it because it covers many different topics, from politics, to entertainment and business news and events. It is a great way to get a good grasp of the major news topics of the day quicker than picking up the newspaper and sorting through all the different sections. Not only does the blog link to other news sources, there are also a handful of guest bloggers that give their two cents on different topics. The layout is easy to maneuver and getting to the articles you want to read is an absolute breeze. Throughout the pages are big, bold, catchy headlines, videos and pictures to get the reader's attention. Usually I will read the NY Times or their website if I have some free time on my hands, but most of the time I am very busy and have limited time to sit down and read lengthy articles. Now i have to admit, the quality of writing is not that of the NY Times, as it does not go into as much depth because the posts are shorter than a normal news article. However, if you choose so, the reader can easily read the entire article if more information is wanted, just by clicking on the hyperlink. Compared to other blogs I have looked at, this one is especially polished and "fancy" unlike the simpleness of others like it. I recommend The Huffington Post to all of you who are strapped for time and want a quality source of news quickly.
