Newschoolers

Newschoolers is a freeskiing dedicated website. It is filled with news, videos, pictures, forums and even gear. I have not used this website as much as other freeskiing ones but it is probably the most popular feeskiing website at the moment. For this reason, other websites are becoming slack due to not being able to keep up with Newschoolers.
I tried to use newschoolers a couple of years ago but I didn't like it because it seemed quite chaotic. Although it still seems to be on the chaotic side of things, it's now a lot more user friendly. It is now easier to navigate threw and in general everything makes more sense. The most recent news is the first thing you see which is good, however this is the most chaotic part of the site. Lots of navigation bars makes it easy to find what you want and the search navigation bar is really helpful.

Freeskier magazine!

This website is the result of the 'Freeskier magazine'. Both the magazine and the website have been around for a long time and I have used the website as a way to keep in touch with all the new freeskiing news. The website is always up to date and so you can count on it to be the first ski website to have things like event results, videos, interviews etc. The website flows nicely by having a navigation bar along the top. However, the main page holds most of what you need by having all of the most recent stories. If you aren't in the mood to read a story, you can just look at the most recent video bar to watch the latest videos. Unfortunately due to there being no money in freesking, there is not a lot of money and time which can go into the website. However, this doesn't really matter because the current website works.

Xerox: Ready For Real Business

The website Xerox: Ready For Real Business takes about a minute to load up when you first enter the site. Once the page is finally loaded, a pop-up appears asking you to do a survey of the website even though you haven't had a chance to have a look at the website yet. The home page is hard to navigate threw as the text of potential link options is very small and hard to read. Once you have clicked on a option, there is another minute of loading. The large amount of loading time makes sense once an interactive video appears with different pre-recorded people talking to you. It is unclear how to get what you want from this website. In addition to this, there is also big ads down the bottom of the page which look like they may be part of the actual business but are just distracting instead. Although the idea behind this website was not bad, the execution is horrible. The overall experience of the website leaves you frustrated and confused.
