Great concept, but still about people behind it
Apr 04 '00
Don't get me wrong, I love Epinions.
I love the fact that I can read honest reviews from real people. I love that fact that the Web of Trust exists, to shunt out dishonest people. The concept is great, and Epinions.com is still one of the mostly-visited resource when I'm deciding whether or not to buy something.
However, lately, I've also been noticing that the opinions are getting shorter and shorter. It seems that people are willing to just post whatever on the site, so they can entice another member to read it, and then get money that way. But the fact of the matter is, unless *everyone* continues to, and makes a commitment to, post QUALITY opinions, Epinions' value will deteriorate.
More facts, less fluff, that's what I say! I'm personally gonna try my best to write opinions that mean something. I hope you do to, for the sake of the Epinions community!
