RICHARD HOLLAND: Hands over to his junior...

Comments on CFZ.org.uk by Bryn Griffiths, aged 15, currently on work experience at Paranormal magazine:

I’m currently doing work experience with Paranormal magazine at Jazz Publishing, trying to gather insight into the journalism industry. I came across CFZ after the editor had told me about it, just after he’d explained to me what cryptozoology was. I’d always enjoyed the subject, just never known the technical word for it.

I ventured over to this site, and was immediately immersed in hundreds of blogs. Nearly all of those I have read have provided me an interest. With particular reference to all blogs on big cats in Britain and the marine creatures, the blogs are very well written and of excellent standard. Some amusing, others factual; the great range of genres is definitely one of the site’s best qualities.

Only a couple of problems exist within the site, one of these being, graphically it is not too pleasing on the eye, with particular reference to the list of blogs screen. The only other problem I’ve found is it is difficult to navigate through to previous stories I have read, perhaps a search engine or topic/date list may be appropriate.

Other than those two blips, this a cracking site, which I will continue to use even after work experience.
