The Good, the Bad, & the Ugly

My topic was Tinnitus.



The Good

link http:www.dizziness-and-balance.com/disorders/hearing/tinnitus.htm
The article's author is Timothy C. Hain, MD. I searched his name and his credentials are credible. (www.tchain.com) In the article, he is very informative about the condition Tinnitus, symptoms, treatment, etc. The information on Tinnitus was thorough, accurate, and current. The last time the page was modified was February 11th, 2010. Many references were acknowledged towards the end of the website. Medical journals were used as sources. There are an abundance of links to other material on Tinnitus. The site is represented at www.alexa.com This web page on Tinnitus is one of the best based on the information I measured it with from Berkeley. There was another website that was very informative too.




The Bad
http://www.medicinenet.com/tinnitus/article/htm
The webpage purpose is to inform the public about Tinnitus. I believe the information was very informative, however there are ways the website can improve. This article doesn't present details on the subject compared to the web page above, which is partly why I think it is bad. The author of the article is John P. Cunha, DO and William C. Shiel Jr., MD is the editor. William C. Shiel is the Chief Editor for Medicinenet.com. I searched both doctors names and information came up about them as medical doctors. It is hon-code certified. There are not any references to support the information in the article. There are links to other information on Tinnitus. The information is displayed like it is common knowledge. The site is represented at www.alexa.com. The last editorial review was November 30th, 2007.
