Rules/Suggestions:
0.5-- Perhaps the most important was overlooked..!! The reviews will only count as published on 09/09/09, September 9, 2009. This will be a 'one and done' write-off..!!
1-- Reviews can be in any category across the site.
2-- Product reviews are preferred. I would like to think we could set a record for most reviews published in a day ...if the community ( you..!! ) embrace the idea and commit to participating.
3-- In the review, preferably at the bottom, express to your reader what your time on Epinions has meant to you. Whether it has been 10 days, ten months, or ten years. Do be brief, do be 'lean-n-mean'...
4-- Multiple reviews would be more than welcome..!!
5-- If you want to do a Writer's Corner piece as well . . .go for it. But I hope you also contribute a product review.
6-- Invite/Challenge all your Eps buddies, across the site, to participate. Lets see if we can crash the servers on 9/9/09..!!
7-- Birthday cake for everyone who participates..!!
8-- Got a suggestion to improve the idea..?? Share it here in a comment..!!
9-- I will be sorry for saying this . . .but ...I pledge to (eventually..!!) link all reviews submitted up here.
10- Join in by leaving a comment..!!
That is it..!! Lets have some fun with it..!!
...tom...
