Starting project


Don't have an idea yet for what my site is going to be a bout but I thought I should analyse the sites I go to for functionality.

Here is the front page for yahoo sports I go to it to read american sport news mainly NBA and NFL aswell as playing fantasy sports when the season starts.

The page fits into the hierarchy that we talked about in class. The logo at the top left hand corner the nav bar just below the main article on the left hand side just below. There is a clutter of information but they have placed a system where the page clearly goes from left to tight and the articles get less and less image space.

below all this is secondary information, columnist analysis, video footage, fantasy stuff...

On the bottom right is the live score update box for many sports... there is also a sports 'ticker' above the main article part on the left.

Also the nav bar is all in one colour other than the different and more used features such as the link to rivals and fantasy sports.

There is one spot to pay the bills below the text headlines box.
