Re: OhGizmo! » Archive » Airing Dirty Laundry: Engadget’s Exclusionist Tactics Are NOT An Isolated Incident

In all fairness, I believe that I originally found this site through an Engadget story. Granted, that was about a year ago and it may have been Gizmodo. Either way, I haven't seen anything attributed to this site on either of the aforementioned blogs in a very long time.

Being part of a larger conglomerate, it would certainly make sense for a site like Engadget to keep traffic within the Weblogs, Inc. family. As you said, sleazy but not in violation of any standards I know of. This would also make more sense than an arbitrary "blacklist". I'm not one to jump to conclusions, but I will certainly keep my eye out and let you know if I see any such patterns. I read both your site and Engadget on a daily basis and come to your site specifically because I will not get the same kind of repetition I get from bouncing back and froth between Engadget and Gizmodo. If there is any truth to this, it should be noted and corrected. You deserve some recognition for your hard work.

Neat idea, but when was the last time your tooth paste was distributed in two, perfectly balanced strips of paste and minty-gel goodness? Or your epoxy in appropriate proportions? Invariably, you always get more of A than B. Now, I like it hot, but what happens when Peptic Ulcer Man dials in "bland" and gets a blast of "hot-as-the-Devil?s-ass-in-July"?

I truly enjoy your blog and read it on a daily basis. A giveaway is a really nice bonus! Many thanks to all the OhGizmo crew. And yes, I know that kissing ass will not increase my chances of winning. Now, just between you, me, and the fencepost, you're gonna give it to me, right?

Don't hold your breath on the pizza being of any decent quality. No self-respecting Chicagoan would vouch for Connies. Still, it's a neat machine and pizza, like sex, is good even when it's bad. I wonder how long the pre-vended pizza will keep.

They've actually had these at my local Sam's Club for at least 2 months now. Orange, CT on Post Rd.
