Reading Blog #4

I could not really think of any company so i asked someone sitting next to me. He told me to look up Chevrolet. I am a big Chevy fan so I thought this would work for me.  When i first seen the web sight, I seen a picture of a nice big Chevy Silverado. This interested me because I want to buy a new truck.  There is only one problem with that, i dont have any money. 
Im looking at the web site more and then the picture turns to a sweet new Corvette.  The picture keeps on changing to new cars.  I like this because is shows everything that the company can offer.  I see some headings at the top of that page that has drop down boxes vehicles, pricing and offers, experience Chevrolet, and oweners.  I am interested the most in the pricing and offers.  Im assuming that i can look at every car Chevy makes.  Im also thinking that they will show how much you will pay per month as well.  Chevy catches my eye without even looking at the web site.  I think that the web site does very well to customers and I like it.

In the Nike web site they use a few people and some shoes.  On the home page they have a pair of new running shoes.  Also with these shoes they have a Ipod touch.  They have subscripts at the bottum that say Nike store, Nikeid, Nike+ running, Nike 6.0, Nike Sportswear, Nike Women, Nike Football, Nike Basketball, and Nike Soccer. In the first two pictures they have shoes. The shoes look normal and basic.  I don't think there is anything special to them.  For the picture for Nike+running, there is a women running.  She looks like she has been running for a while.  Her face looks a little weird.  For the Nike 6.0, there is a guy with a surf board.  I'm not sure what exactly this sight means or goes to.  Next there is Nike Sportswear.  For that picture they have Christiano Ranoldo.  Ranoldo is a major, high paid, extremely well known soccer player.  He has done some modeling and this could be why he is on the cover for the sportswear section.  For Nike women, there is a picture of a women sweating.  She is smiling and is happy.  She looks comfortable with what who she is and what she is wearing.  Next is Nike Football.  With that they are showing a new jersey for a few different teams.  I think that this site is just for those jerseys.  Nike basketball is next.  Kevin Durant is the picture for this.  He is a famous and young star.  He is a great poster boy for basketball right now.  He lead the U.S. basketball team to a championship.  Finally is the Nike Soccer.  For this picture they are showing four Nike soccer cleats.  These cleats look very cool and are really shiny.  I think this is to try and help attract customers.

research blog #5

Nike is so diverse that there in no other web site like it.  On the first two pages it asks you where you are at exactly.  There are so many ;people that access this website from other countries.  Nike is so diverse that they attract people from many different countries. 
When you first look at the Nike we site you see a pair of shoes.  This shows you that they are trying to sell something and that they are trying to get the attention of athletic people.  Than on the side of the web site they have different tabs that you could go to.  whatever you are interested in you could find it at one of the side tabs.

research blog #4

I am doing this research blog on the sports sight Nike.  The very first think you see when you open the sight is a big picture of some shoes.  On the left side of the page there are links to other Nike sites for men, women, girls boys, NikeID, team sports, clearance, and a get help. At the very top of the page it has your order status and your shopping cart.  As you scroll down you will see other links that you can go to.

hegemony


I think this picture is a good exaple of hegemony because I believe the U.S is one of if not is the major power in the world.  The world is on a tight rope over the u.s capital because a lot think that we are in control of everything. I am not sure why there is a world bank sign on there? i no the u.s. owes a lot of money to a lot of countries.
