Research Blog Part six

Using aspects of representation from Ch. 3, analyze how you think your research site represents themselves to their audience. Focus on pictures, written text, comments, music, format of the website--anything. Based on the way that the home page looks (use thick description in this), how do you think these members are representing themselves to their cohorts and there visitors.

     I think they are representing themselves to their cohorts in a appealing way. The site is really for people who are true fans! there are so many pictures of micheal jackson everywhere there are even videos. they also have other links to clubs and sites you can join.They have picture you can bid on to buy that have never been seen . they also have memorabila you can buy and just all sorts of mj collectables. They also have tributes to him on the site to appeal to their cohorts.

I think they are representing themselves to their visitors as possible future memebers to the community. I feel like they are really trying to draw them in with all the pictures and videos. They have a statement on there that says the mj community from nation to nation. i think they are using this to show that they are a friendly united community that everyone can be apart of.
