When looking on this site there is one word that comes to mind... Great. Your team has come up with something truly interesting. While reading and exploring on your site I was able to stay informed all while not becoming bored or oversaturated with information. The topic that was chosen and the direction you all took is by far better than the one I personally would have taken if this were my project. The layout is beautiful in all honesty, grand appealing.

If there was one thing that I could offer to your group to make an improvement to this project it would be: Add a creative commons license because this work is too good to possibly let someone else take credit for or your web layout. That is my honest and pondered opinion. If there is anything in the coming days that I can think of I will be sure to let you know and post it on here!

I honestly don't have much to critic about your page, since I learn so much from you. I love how you presented the data, it makes the whole project so much more cohesive and in such a fun, easy-to-understand way. The only one thing that I have to critic (which isn't really much to be honest) is your font and font color. The white can be hard to read at times and your font is a little small (or maybe I am just very blind). When you changed the colors to emphasize some words, some of them are hard to read so maybe adding a highlight behind the text would help? I am super impressed with your gallery and would definitely be stealing a code or two. Good work!

I love music and this page is great! You present all your information and data used in a way that is not confusing. The top ten names used was very interesting and not what I expected. Breaking the nouns down by decade is a good way to show how the Blues has stayed close to its roots, while growing as a genre. I also liked that the smaller graphs popped out a bit when hovered over. One suggestion would be having a link to a static image for the Network of Interactions between Songwriters and Performing Artists. It being interactive is nice but the window is limiting when zoomed in. Again, great job!

Hey guys, awesome project! First things first, thanks for all the help with getting some of our visuals off the ground! The help you guys lent the assassin's creed project really got us moving and that's what coding and this community is about, collaboration!

My first comment is that I really like the blue and bluesy theme of the website. You guys really nailed a theme that coincides with the content of the project. The second comment I have is how good the visuals are! They are easy to read, well designed, and display useful information. They are clearly well made and function quite well in providing clear and useful information. Well done guys!

The only comment I would have for improvement is maybe to change up some of the colors in your visuals to match the theme of the site better, I don't think it's even necessary to do this but it couldn't hurt if you have some spare time before submission. Well done!

There really isn’t much to critic about this project! I loved your presentation and I loved how much work and effort you guys put into making your site not only user friendly but also enjoyable to look at and play around with. Your data is vast but the use of the interactive graphs and the organization put in, it doesn’t seem as daunting as it may look! You guys did everything that was laid out and took it a step further and even taught the rest of us how to do certain things, like making the interactive graphs and integrating them into our websites, and for that I thank you guys sincerely because it made out graphs look so much cleaner and have our website some life that it was missing.

Hey everyone, thanks sooo much for all of your wonderful comments and feedback (': I was not expecting such high praise, this really means a lot! You guys are the bomb, it was a pleasure working and collaborating w/ y'all in 210 (-:

Not to sound like a broken record, but this is just fantastic. Navigation is easy, the colors work well (in my opinion), and the few pictures added a nice flare to the site as a whole. All my homies love the interactivity, and the on-hover effect of the smaller bar graphs is simply chef's kiss. The information presented is very interesting as well, it's insane to see B.B. King's impact on the Blues genre visualized.
