Citing Sources

Today we had to take three different journal articles and use three different citing websites to site them. I looked at Citation Machine, Easy Bib, and Cite Me. When I first got on all the websites were easy to make accounts on. After I had made an account on Easy Bib it was confusing. I was unable to find where I was supposed to put my website. Then when I did find it I had to copy and paste the URL into it. After that all the information came up already filled in. I didn't like that it had already filled in a lot of the information because they capitalized most of it so I had to go back and retype it anyways. When I logged on to Citation Machine it was easy to get around on the website. You select what type of format you want to use then you enter all of your information. This was my favorite website because you could enter all of the information on your own and then copy and paste the URL to double check all of your information. This website was my favorite. Last when you log on to cite me it was also confusing to me of where I was supposed  to type my URL or put my information , this website also fills in information for you.
