The Pebble smart watch was supposed to be this big revolutionary product when they got their kickstarter funding and scored big with their $5M in funding. I think we all thought they would have all of these amazing apps at the time of launch. Instead what we got was what many called a "prototype". Now finally they have a steel version of the same watch which should at least look better but they still do not have any killer apps which would keep this watch in the lead. I saw samsungs watch and it looked far better and had more apps available for it that were useful to me. I think the pebble smart watch is a great buy still as that is really all there is available unless you have a samsung note phone. Otherwise, wait for the apple watch as it is supposedly around the corner. If the pebble watch suddenly get more useful apps then I think this could be a great device and I wish them the best.

I bought a winix WAC5500 Washable True HEPA Air Cleaner and it died after about 3 months. The auto filter part stopped working. Even before that I was saddened to find out that the "washable" filter is just the pre filter and I still have to buy carbon filters. I wish I had known that before I bought it. I also wish I had known how expensive the carbon filter were to buy. I did like how well the winix air filter worked and it did reduce my allergy problem.

  • CanvasPress

1/10/14

I ordered a few canvas prints from the company but one of them turned out darker than the rest. It might have been my fault for sending in a photo that was a little too dark to be printed on canvas, but it was fine on paper. Customer service was a little slow and I could tell they did not want to reprint the canvas for me. Other than that the experience was good and the 2 other prints turned out really well. The frame was great quality too. I would order from them again though I wish I could do a smaller size for a really cheap price just to see how the colors look before getting a larger size.

I heard about this food company from my doctors office and they have very tasty food that I think is better than what is sold by other similar types of companies. Years ago my girlfriend was on jenny craig and I tried those which I thought were terrible. This is much better and I actually save money and can help lower my blood pressure. They do not have a super variety of foods but what they do have tastes really good. I like having something different every day for dinner and they do not have enough variety to do that for a long period of time. I hope they continue to create more foods as good as the ones they have now.

  • Clickteam

Clickteam Fusion 2.5 Developer is a decent product that I had the unfortunate experience of helping my friend debug his wannabe app program. Yes you can somewhat create apps using this and it is similar to using adobe programs such as flash, adobe air, flex, and cold fusion. I think if you are going to spend the time learning a program, go with adobe's programs to build your ios and android apps. This is much cheaper than adobe programs but from what I have seen you are better off with the much more expensive adobe programs. If you just want to dabble in app creation then clickteam's Fusion 2.5 is probably a perfect starting point as their program is only $99 as compared to adobe's offering which will cost thousands.

  • Dropbox

I used to love dropbox until I had a problem with my account and they did not respond to me. I think unless you are a corporate client you are going to get low customer service. Their prices compared to box.com are also extremely high.

  • Dvdfab

12/22/13

DVDfab is a crazy good dvd, blu ray ripping tool. It is easy to use and within minutes (yes minutes) you can rip a blu ray to your hard drive in any format you want. MP4, mpeg2, and even ISO files. I hope this software is legal, and I think as long as you are only using it to make back ups of your own dvd/ blu rays then that is fine. For me, I wanted a hard drive media server of all of my movies to watch whenever and where ever I wanted to and this is the perfect tool for that. Why 3 stars? The price is crazy high. I paid $299 for a lifetime subscription otherwise it was $199 for only 2 years. I could not believe the high price. They also claimed they would ship me a free video player as a bonus and I never received that either. Despite that I never got my video player and the price is outrageous, the software works flawlessly. There are cheaper solutions out there, but none that work as well as dvdfab IMO. If you can stomach the high price tag, then this is a great software program.

  • Kaiser Permanente

I agree with the last poster... Kaiser is awesome until you really get sick. I will say they do have really good radio commercials though.

  • MOGL

8/23/13

Very cool site that lets me get 10% back after I make a purchase. I like how you don't need to do anything except use the same credit card you always use anyways. No snide look from the waitress as you hand them a coupon card or iphone app. Just simple use a credit card at a qualifying restaurant and get 10% back. My only reason for not giving 5 stars is the low amount of places to eat on the program. Most of the places are restaurants that have no business anyways. Maybe this will catch on in the future. Or perhaps opentable will just destroy mogl and create their own version of this app. Until then, give it a try!

  • Ultimategamecard

6/27/13

The best part about this site is that they have negotiated great bonus deals with all of the major MMO gaming companies. For example rather than buying zen directly from perfectworld.com you can buy an online game card from ultimategamecard.com and get a bonus 15% zen.

  • Perfect World

6/27/13

Free to play MMOs have been around for some time now but none of them have been very successful as compared to world of warcraft or other types of subscription models. Perfectworld has mostly developed free MMO games in china ( http://www.pwrd.com) and now has developed online D&D franchise Neverwinter for the US market. It has been very well received by almost all MMO reviewers and I just wanted to review the actual website here. Perfectworld is a very legit site and you can easily buy online currency called Zen for any of their games on the site. The one trick I would say to use is to NOT buy Zen directly from the site and instead by zen from other websites such as http://www.ultimategamecard.com/ because there you can get an extra 15% of Zen. Or sign up to be on the perfect world mailing list they will give you bonus zen offers. You have nothing to lose on the games, they are all free and you don't even need a credit card to sign up.

  • Dein Mittelalter Shop

I searched online forever to find a website that sells elven female armor and finally I found this one in Germany. The site is all in German, but you can still order from them if you get a website translator. One of the rare sites in the world to sell full leather female elven armor.

  • Yodle

6/21/13

Do not fall for their "we will buy your domain name with a. Net for you". That way they OWN YOU and you no longer own that domain name. If you do use yodle, please buy your own domain name using godaddy or whatever. For tracking purposes they want you to use their phone number. That is fine, but here is my advice, on your website use a new phone number and merely have it forwarded to their number. That way when you quit using yodle after you get tired of paying extra $$$ for google ad words, you can easily stop their service. It is much harder if they own your phone number. Their service does work and it does bring in business, I give it a 2 stars because of their tactics to keep you as a client.

IGE
  • IGE

6/21/13

First of all the wow gold is not nearly as cheap as other sites so for that reason I am giving IGE a 2 star and second it takes FOREVER to get your gold and I was almost thinking this was a scam site. The only reason I am giving IGE a 2 star instead of 1 is they did deliver the gold. I am not sure I will try this site for anything on D3.

  • Cheaptomshoesale.us

6/7/13

Okay, I tried to contact their customer service and NOBODY got back to me. They do not even have a US phone number. This is a site based outside of the US or I would like to think they could spell the word Return... they spell it ruturn. Either the site is run by an illiterate idiot or this is from china. In any case, I would not recommend it. They also have fake mcafee badge that should link to the mcafee website, but it doesn't.

  • Mars One

5/8/13

Seriously crazy website about how they plan to colonize the planet mars and want donations to do so. Ambitious, but I do wonder if they really plan to pull this off or if the creator of the program is just going to pocket all of this money over the next decade and then the mission will just never exist. They did enlist a number of professionals so perhaps it is a legit undertaking. I can see a reality TV show being created from this website and people competing to be the next astronaut to mars.

Better way to find a roommate than craigslist! This site was very useful to me to find a roommate that was compatible with all of my needs. It like a dating site for a roommate and let's face it, I think it is more important who lives with me than a girl I date. I can dump the girl in a day, but a roommate you are stuck with until the end of the lease. This company I think is made by the same people who created match.com so it works the same way.

  • EASYHTML5VIDEO.COM

4/29/13

Spammy website that tries to trick you into downloading its software before you leave the site. That in my mind is always a bad move for a software company who wants attract the demographic that uses a video converter... we know better than to fall for their little tricks. Having said that, the video coder does work but isn't free. If you want a free converter that does basically the exact same thing as this website read my review of Mira here
http://www.sitejabber.com/reviews/www.mirovideoconverter.com#1

Or if you want a paid converter, read my review of MovAvi.com

  • Movavi Software Inc.

4/29/13

Movavi is a video converter program that supports almost all file types including mp4, webm, ogv and flv. The upside of the program is the huge variety of supported formats and ability to control quality level and output. The tradeoff is the price tag of $50. Other websites I have reviewed here such as this one
http://www.sitejabber.com/reviews/www.mirovideoconverter.com#1
Is FREE. I would check that one out first and see if it works for you. Then try this one. The other disadvantage of the movavi.com video converter is that it has limited options of. Webm resolution outputs. You cannot customize webm output, meaning if you wanted a video resolution of say 400x244 that isn't possible with this converter using webm.

  • MiroVideoConverter

4/29/13

This isn't the most robust video converter for MP4, OGV, or webM, but it is FREE. You can't beat free. The codecs work fine and can help you be HTML5 compliant, however, you have little control over resolution, quality, and audio. If Mira video converter doesn't work for you, I would suggest trying movavi.com as your second option, but that costs around $50. That problem has far more controls over output.
