  • Resources: A resource is a website that you use to reference specific information. For example we all make us of Wikipedia as a research tool. As Architects we also make use of resources more specific to our profession like www.USGS.org for access to US Geological Survey data and PDF’s or OASISNYC.net to research our sites.

  • Utilities: For Utilities list websites that serve a function but do not have resource related information. For example, you can make use of www.SlideShare.net to upload a Powerpoint you have created and convert it into a format that can be embedded into a website as a slideshow. Another example would be www.DropBox.com which can be used to share files collaboratively or as a safe place to backup your work and a third example would be TypeWith.me that allows for collaborative communication.
