I have never seen sites as bad as this one that only states opinions instead of facts that make you "digest" instead of think. What I need is information of say, a feature, usage, and other comparison of Linux stuff for Windows (eg Windows subsystem for Linux). I seriously doubt that they even know their facts straight before they made their comment.

I never believed in bitcoin recovery because I was made to understand that it is not possible. But sometime in February I fell for a binary options scam which promised a higher return and I lost close to $20k. I read an article on reddit as regards to a recovery expert and genius so I reached out to Blockchainrecall.com, and to my surprise I got all bitcoins recovered within 42hours frame. I don't know if I'm allowed to share the links on here but you can contact him if you are finding it very difficult to withdraw your funds at Blockchainrecall. Com

Lists FREE Reverse Look Sp sites. But all of of the ones listed charge... none of them are FREE Another useless site!

I paid for a life time VPN subscription which got renewed every 5 years, Makeuseof Deal did not honour this and fobbed me off with a cheaper VPN they also stated because they could not honour the VPN they would credit my account with $20, after numerous emails the credit has still not been applied to my account and they are now ignoring my emails, even though I have asked to speak to a supervisor or management... I will not be purchasing or using this company again as they false advertise products and sales on there website. And would NOT be recommending them to others after my terrible experience.

Articles are badly written, and edited articles are hacked together and lose the train of thought while being unintelligible. I've seen kids write better on social media than this. Site doesn't have articles listed by date which makes it hard to find the latest stories in each section. Apparently common sense and normal layouts were not on the drawing board for their webdev. Site can be done better but they are content to perform on a sub-par level on all fronts. No trace of any collaboration or management to keep things on track.

MAO first pissed me off a while back when I read an article claiminh that people who troll scammers shouldn't do that. Stupidest article ever as the people that do are $#*!in heros. Nobody likes scam callers. And those trollers often provide useful info as well as they promote their own YouTube channel
It's a win win win MAO is seems jelly about. Now recently I read an article claiming that... the Hyundai tablet... is far better than the Nexus one... With barely giving reasons or stats why... But worse... they claim it's not the same as the car company...
Suprisee... it is. They lied cause they likely didn't bother to research. Site is trash and I try to avoid it. I suggest to do the same.

I keep getting this message. Quote

Now, how the duck, are all your 50 eployees writing $#*!, i hoped only at least one will be the smart one, the website is $#*!, ads and ads and ads, and ads. And more ads.
And articles are $#*!, they are sending you for $#*!ty apps, with links, i dont even need to click it to know this is $#*!. I have no good words what so ever to describe this, i dont know why this website is on google, when you search for something. This should be on the bottom of the *******`th page.

I've been trying to sync my Google and Windows calendars. MakeUseOf.com keeps coming up with results but their articles are TERRIBLY outdated to the point of being useless. Not only this, but there is no way I've found to contact them to ask a new question or contact site support to notify them of their need to update articles. Clicking "contact" just refreshes the menu panel... "Ask the experts" took me to a page called "Answers"... How do you propose to answer my question when you haven't let me ask one, eh? This site is utterly garbage in my experience.

Oh, looks like the Contact link finally responded. Bully for that. Too little too late.

Everything I read and look at with make use of leaves me cold with this company. You cannot get a straight answer from them. What they offer is vaguely genuine until you start asking questions that they do not answer. Not to be trusted.

MUO's tech info is often useful, but beware of their "deals." After a particularly bad experience with one of thie vendors, I started looking them up on Better Business Bureau and similar sites. Every one I looked at was rated "F" or, if unrated, had numerous unresolved complaints. MUO claims they "curate" their merchants and they can be trusted. That is either deliberately misleading or a fabrication. They also promote questionable software and services that pay them for the promo, so read carefully any disclaimer they post about an entry. Finally, they don't respond to emails asking for help or questioning their practices. As another reviewer noted, they seem quite arrogant. I will continue to appreciate their guides, but carefully. They are simply untrustworthy in too many areas.

I'm not happy with makeuseof. I just read an article about Google Books and there was a link placed in the article that appeared to be for the Google books site. I clicked it and signed up. I gave my credit card info still thinking it was Google and I then discovered that it is something called czarmedia they want $34 per month. There's nothing free. I tried cancelling and they want $1 to cancel the membership. They probably make a fortune in cancellations. I'll be watching my credit card statements but what a pain in the neck that is. I'll never go to makeuseof again. It's a big scam.

This site is awesome for those who aren't techie at all, but let's get in to why it's not good in every other way. This site is all about the world of technology, but the staff there are snobby, they act like they are the prince of "Q&A", which by the way is never answered by an actual staff member, and their entire site got hacked. The staff should be friendly and welcoming, they're web writers, nothing special. However, they act like they are the king of sites. They aren't that useful, informative or cool. I've seen much better sites with friendlier staff. "Advertise with us for x and x" amount of money? I know many bigger websites who would advertise for you free of charge. They try to get you to subscribe, download content, lead you to annoying directories -- all of which are found on Google. Some of them are malware and viruses. They act like clowns when they seem to act as if they are intelligent at the same time.

I knew next to nothing about new technology just 2 years ago, it was very frustrating and I did not know how to protect myself from the likes of key loggers and such. My so called friends acted as if key logging was just an urban legend... ya right, so fast forward I am not totally crazy and without MUO I would still be in the dark ages. No they did not directly help with the key logging however they have such an arsenol of useful information and even a ask the pros questions forum, which someone always gives me a useful solution to an issue no matter how big or small. The guides and free cheat sheets are icing on the cake oh I guess the cherry would be the points accumilated system which you can trade in for cool software, I just got rightnote from points I earned for just being me and giving honest feedback and such. I think they rock hardcore metal style. Christine
