Botox: It's a Miracle Wrinkle Cure *and* a Bioterror Threat!
This blog has very interesting information about how the botox used to beautify people could be used as a weapon against people. The substance contained in the botox, botulinum is very toxic, and can easily kill a lot of people simultaneously. Countries like China and Russia have been holding a huge interest in botoxes, as well as talks of the Al-Qaeda's effort of trying to use botox in their attacks making the situation all the more frightening. Some things I liked about this blog was that there were quotations from legitimate sources such as the //Washington Post// which enhanced the seriousness of the article. Furthermore, the blog provided links to other related information and blogs to this one.

Apple v.s. Amazon: The Great E-Book War has Already Begun Not a blog. This is an e-zine. 4/5
With the new iPad that is coming out, it offers a new program called iBook. It is very similar to Amazon, where one can purchase books of one's choice. A battle between the two companies has started, trying to persuade publishers to sell books in their stores. Apple offers a more flexible contract when selling books while Amazon is the biggest of its kind in the market so far. This blog had excellent pictures which helped the reader get a clearer image of the yet-to-be presented iPad and its iBook application. Furthermore, the tags at the bottom are useful for people who want to learn more about the material related to this topic.
