Internet Evaluation Reports from Consumer Reports WebWatch

Throught the Pew Internet & American Life Project, I came across some Web Evaluation reports by ConsumerReports WebWatch which may be of interest.

One, "Experts v Online Consumers" evaluates, using experts in the field, public health care web sites and finance web sites (eg Merrill Lynch, E-Trade, etc. ) for the consumer using criteria with which we are all familiar. It's worth a look!
