February 22, 2000: asilrenrut's Affiliation Revealed, Power of Web of Trust Confirmed

San Francisco, CA--As one startup has proven, sharing opinions isn't just about Eroyalties anymore. In a bizarre turn of events, "asilrenrut", aka Lisa Turner, is reported to have begun working as a writer for Epinions.com after unknowingly opting the Creative Director into her Web of Trust!

Sources say that renrut finds her work "every bit as satisfying as writing movie reviews, although writing reviews isn't actually part of my work." Friends and family report that since her January fourth start date, her opinion-writing rate has decreased steadily, while her tendency to be opinionated has increased dramatically. In related news, Epinions.com officials report that the quality of reviews on the site continues to head skyward . . .
