The informative website I chose is The Maryland Science Center, which is located in downtown Baltimore. I picked this website for many reasons, the first being I love going to The Science Center. I also really like the website, and I think it is a great example of a user-friendly site. It is very organized, easy to use, contains a lot of information, and would be a reliable source of information.
It is clear who created the site, and what The Maryland Science Center’s qualifications are. On the homepage, it says Maryland Science Center, and even has information about the actual Science Center, including its address. In the menu, it has an about us section, which provides information about who the people are that run it, background information on it, and even information about the board members.
As I mentioned before, the website is very easy to use. The web developer makes it clear where you are, and how you move around the site. On the homepage, there is a very large menu with many different things to choose from. As you move your mouse over the selections, it divides the information into even smaller 
categories, so you can find exactly what you are looking for. In the other pages on the site the menu is located on the left side of the screen so you can go to another page right from there, or return the homepage.
I like the design of the website. It is very easy on the eyes, but is still attractive to look at. The font appears to be the standard veranda, with a text color of black. The background is white, which makes it very easy to read the text. The layout of the page is very simple, and the most colorful thing on the pages is the menu on the side, which makes it very easy to find. Overall it is a great website.
