I used Prezi for my example. I have never used Prezi before. I like it, but not enough to use it. It seems a little too animated for my taste. It has tons of different themes and such, so thats a pro. The biggest con is that its a lot to have to figure out and work with to get a really good presentation.
I also tried Weebly. It seemed very confusing. So much as to I didn't even go into the site that much. Im sure it would be perfect for a marketing major or a computer major.
I plan to use old fashioned PowerPoint. I enjoy using it because I know all of its features and such. Everyone has been using PowerPoint since middle school. I like to add animations and everything to mine with lots of pictures and using as little text as I can.

My topic, How has the recession affected the sociology career field?

Website Article: 
Harris , David . "How will the recession affect social services?." Community Care . Reed Business Information Ltd, 04 March 2009. Web. 2 Apr 2013

This website article is about how the recession is affecting the social workers and the field of social work. The author breaks it down into children services, adult services and budget cuts. 

Online Journal Article 
Glazer , Nathan . "My Life in Sociology ." Annual Review of Sociology . 38.1 (2012): 1-16. Web. 2 Apr. 2013. < http://www.annualreviews.org/doi/abs/10.1146/annurev-soc-071811-145506>.

This article really is not about how the recession has effected sociology  but it was written by a guy who has been doing sociology and he talks about the different ways it has made him.
