Site Updates & News: April 20, 2016
Hello Everyone! Hope you’re all doing well.
It’s been a crazy couple of months as this site has grown in popularity beyond my expectations. In order to improve site usability, I have updated my review templates to move the [read more] tag to immediately underneath the rating. That way, while browsing the site the amount of text is not so overwhelming – it is necessary to click on the post to read about the product.
While I strive to be an honest reviewer, the system is rigged against me. Recently Amazon has been culling reviewers whom they find to be in arbitrary violations of their policies. I plan to make a video outlining the problem with the current Amazon review system and the ‘free products in exchange for reviews’ people like me do. It’s a bit of a mess and the more in-depth I get into it the less I trust other reviews. There are a lot of shill reviewers out there and it is causing problems for those of us who try to be honest (ie: Amazon accounts getting indiscriminately deleted). Other highlighted videos/articles I’m planning for the next month include:
- Planned obsolescence and why it hurts the tech industry
- Samsung Galaxy S7 Camera Review
- Updated Gitup Git2 review with new firmware
I want to get into videos more so I’m not as reliant on the Amazon system for reviewing so if you have any suggestions for products or videos you would like to see, just let me know and I’ll see what I can do about it!
Thank you for reading.
