Purpose, Audience, Genre Task #2

The blog I chose was The Gadgeteer. The blog is directed to people that use gadgets for their everyday life. Mainly for people that want to live a bit easier. The central focus of the blog is what new gadgets are available for people that are looking for gadgets and also reviews of the gadgets. The theme is gadgets and the design is very simple. I found this site very useful because I love gadgets and I tend to buy gadgets for myself and it is interesting to me. It is a simple not great design. This blog covers alot of things that a reader would love to know about gadgets. I would have added more color and graphics to the site myself since I am a graphic designer. The author is contructing her digital identity by showing the reader the different aspects of gadgets and what how she protrays it through the site. The site has many approaches that are similar because they tend to describe the item and then tell you about what they taught about that specific gadget.
