I thoroughly found the presentation of the Social Explorer website to be very fascinating. I think it will be a beneficial resource for our research on our respective China towns as well as the final documentary we will be filming. I’ve never seen such a website where you can access the demographics of any neighborhood in the country throughout the years. You can literally save pictures and record the statistically-based demographics and characteristics of any specific neighborhood or general region. You can use this resource to find out details such as the dominant race in a specific region, and could can even correlate this to other traits such as religion. I think the true beauty of this website is the ability to use this tool to study a specific area over time and then compare that to the history of the area in accordance to the time period and observe any correlations. This will help us specifically with our research and ultimately with our final project this semester because it will provide us with the opportunity to deepen our understanding of our respective communities and help us make connections that wouldn’t have been possible beforehand. The information we can acquire from this website will help to make our documentaries more thorough.
