MZTV

Right off the bat this website caught my attention with the first move of the mouse. Entering the “museum” of television, you move toward the image of the museum and suddenly a man, and a woman with child icons appear to be walking in with you, leading you to the door. I love the way famous quotes are on constant replay, it keeps the attention of the user and gives them something interesting to look at on the homepage of the site.
It is very cool how the colorful reels of options to click on rolls by with which aspects of the history of television you want to explore. The site aims to please many different kinds of people, with a ton of information about early pioneers of TV, famous television actresses including Marilyn Monroe, and an easy to read timeline of the history of television. Anything you need to know about one of the most important inventions of the past decade can be easily found and learned.

The interactive 3d gallery is an incredible idea of the creators of this website. Not only does it attract you to use the website to its fullest and look around at everything, but it is an even better way to learn the information being presented, and explore it on your own terms as the user. It’s very cool to see the evolution of the television set from the earliest model in 1928 to what we see today in Best Buy.
