UIR Episode 2a - My research based on the 4 different categories...

Today, UIR lesson require me to pair up and do research based on a common topic. My group mate and I had chosen FOOD as our topic... but I will be looking into the western food aspect.

I have learnt of the following 4 categories from the previous lesson...The first one is the newsgroups and discussion list. For my research, I found http://202.172.44.222/forum-asia//showthread.php3?t=1260 to fall into this category. It is a discussion board that has different people discussing about the different western food that they had ever came across. Most of them also stated to readers where to find the western food that they want to share with others.

The second one is the electronic journals and magazine. For my research, I found http://taiwanjournal.nat.gov.tw/ct.asp?xItem=21754&CtNode=122 to fall into this category. It is journal entries about 3 women who have achieve success through western food in Taipei by running little bistros in the male-dominated restaurant business.

The third one is the multi-media source. For my research, I found http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YeQ9hAotlcM to fall into this category. It is a website that introduces viewers to the western food that this particular restaurant provides.

The last one is the WWW site. For my research, I found http://www.discoverhongkong.com/eng/gourmet/dining/gp_dini_west.jhtml to fall into this category. It is a website from the Hong Kong tourism board telling tourist about the western food that they have there.

This is what I had learnt from practical 1 task.
To be continued...
