In essence, this site has made researching easy. The Essentials of Buddhism site does this well. The easier to read text makes it more understandable, especially if a younger researcher is reading. The only down side to this approach is that when the information is manipulated to make it easier to read, some of the more detailed information is lost. Using charts can be another great way to organize information, make it understandable, easily readable, and probably the best way to put research information on a website.
Charts give the necessary information without having to skim through all the unneeded writing.
It can save time researching and writing much easier. Also, the Dragon Flower Ch'an Buddhist Temple has a question and answer service where you can ask a Buddhist monk a question, and this can be very helpful. All in all, a great site should be easy to read and understand, include a few pictures so as to not bore the reader to death, and have a quality amount of information.
