Here is a site for all you movie buffs out there!  www.imdb.com  The Internet Movie Database was introduced to me a short time ago and it has quickly become one of my favorite websites. 

Not only does this site permit movie-goers to search the database for virtually any film they can think of, even those that are often considered obscure or films that have not even opened in theaters yet, granting them access to a great wealth of information including synopsis, cast list, ratings, trailers, local showtimes, and a number of other interesting facts, but www.imdb.com provides users with recommendations for other movies that may be of interest to them as well as link them to Amazon.com to purchase their selections.  As though this is not enough, this site also provides users with primetime television schedules broadcast on a variety of networks as well as links to news stories regarding current events in the entertainment industry right on its homepage.

www.imdb.com is particularly effective in targeting its core audience, the movie-goers of America, as it provides them with quick and easy access to almost anything they want to know associated with films and the entertainment industry. I like www.imdb.com particularly because I always quickly locate exactly what I am looking for and I also find it comfortable to navigate.  The website, itself, is easy to read as well as visually appealing. 

There are no large or distracting banner advertisements.  Instead, the website’s sponsors are listed and linked to on the homepage.  For example, there are a number of references upcoming awards shows.  Links to different categories are straightforward as well.  These are located within the column on the left-hand side of the page as well as across the top heading of the webpage.
