LifeHacker

The Site Lifehacker.com is about trying to help people with every day tips and tricks. They provide information to everyone about everything in life. It is not only about computers but on plants, photos and electronics. it has articles on how to make photographs come out better and clearer. The site is not only made buy one person it has many different writers. Some writers of the site are Adam Push, Gina Trapani and Tamer Weinberg. Lifehacker seems to be very active as some of their articles have over 7,000 views and a lot of their other articles had around 3,000 views. This blog is intended for i think from ages 16-30. they have many interesting articles that will interest many people. It is not for just one person since they have many topics. The Site is constantly updated as information comes on the web. They also have many products that they test to see how it works and to see if users should bother in buying them. The Site has ads so its a commercial site. It does not have many of them on the first page there was about 2-3 ads on and thats was about it.
The layout of the site is pretty simple it just has a basic list of the stories. it has about a paragraph of the story and then has a link to see if u would like to read more about it. Users are allowed to comment and post what they thing about the story. Users are also allowed to send them tips and questions about what they think or how to improve the site.
This site is very interesting and helpful. They have many reason why they have such a huge user database. I will probably look at this site every once in a a while and see if i can find a life "hack."
