    Well, I finally decided to try another review site (thanks to Krus54 for recruiting me here!)  For those of you who know me from Epinions, this is the same 'Customeright'.  I had always intended to be loyal and build a reputaion there, but I've been more disenfranchised with their review rating process lately which is overly subjective and has no standard for categorization.  There, you're completely at the mercy of the advisors.  They decided whether you get a top rating or not, and most likely it's not, even if you've written a VERY throughough and detailed review, and even if it just happens to be the first review on a product, and in some cases the only review!  Yet, even with solid positive feedback, you still won't get the coveted 'Most Helpful' (which you should get at least until there's a second review published).  Why they haven't created a better system for this rating method is beyond me.  But that's how it is over there until they change their system.  Of course I'll be both pleased and shocked if they do.  I think they might be the last major website to get on the Web 2.0 train.

    So... here I am.  I'll continue publishing in both places as I can and as I'm allowed, so I'll try to consider this more 'syndication' than jumping ship.  What I haven't decided yet is whether I'll just adapt my reviews as necessary for this site, or create original reviews here.  It all depends on how Viewpoints works and appeals to me.

    Thanks for reading, and on any review I write, or comment, feel free to let me know your Viewpoint!
