Target Audience
- University of Texas sports fans, mainly UT students, UT alumni, and the general public that are fans of university
- anyone who wants to talk about UT sports or any of the other topics that are designated on specific forums
Usefulness of Content
- message board where you can discuss a variety of topics based on the specific forum
- can get information from others and hear differing opinions
- always new posts and topics so content is constantly changing and updated
- mainly for UT sports, but has other forums that have nothing to do with sports - somewhat of a deviation from the name of the website
- have links to articles about UT sports teams on the homepage that haven't been updated in awhile
Consistency of Design
- consists of white, black, and burnt orange colors which fit with the name of the website
- same format for posting and same look of posts on every forum
- can get information on what topics are allowed to be discussed on each forum
- switch colors for each post so they are easier to distinguish between
- because the site generates a lot of traffic, especially during games, it sometimes takes awhile to load pages
Ease of Navigation
- easy to move around the site and not get lost
- can go to each of the different forums with the links on the left no matter what part of the site you are in
- have a limited number of topics posted on each page of the forum so you don't have to scroll too far - instead click to another page of topics
- allows you to click to different pages of a topic so does not force you to see every post every time
- can search for past topics instead of having to scroll through page after page
