Day 12

The New York Times website is characterized by a black and white theme, as befits a newspaper's digital delivery of itself. The highly stylized logo/name of the newspaper appears front and center on the home page, with a digital version of the front page, complete with pictures and links, below. The website is easy to navigate and makes for a very efficient delivery of the news. I, for one, find the website a more efficient headpiece than the physical, print, copy of this paper. By contrast, the South Carolina Department of Motor Vehicles website is just about as pleasing to visit as an actual, physical scdmv. The website is constructed if links framing the left and the right, content in the middle, and a dreadful, chintzy, banner across the top. While the website does accomplish what it needs to, it does so in a drab, bland, and strictly teutonic way.
