http://espn.go.com/



The ESPN official website is very well done in terms of layout/design and type used. The use of the scoreboard that keeps live updates is a great touch and allows you to stay current with your favorite sports teams when you are unable to see the games yourself. The use of a gradient within the background is also successful as it makes my eye travel from top to bottom, which in turn makes me read more on the site. The site also uses a very clean sans serif typeface that is clear and concise and very easy to read. All in all, it is a very successful website. ESPN.com brings up the controversy of how much belongs in the main content areas. Since it is a sports website, there is going to be large amounts of main content in order to cover the vast area of sports. At the same time, you still get a clear picture of what is the header and what is the footer.
