What if this:
Every product put on BoingBoing, were reviewed by contributors. Instead of offered up semi-randomly as the result calculated from metrics collected about our users?
What if we had a human take one for the team instead of just letting stackcommerce pollute the blog.
I’m sure it’d take at most a few manhours a month to at least have a real human who writes here review the thing stackcommerce is slinging. And if it’s not good enough, it’s stackcommerce’s fault for recommending it. Not our fault for the contributor not liking it.
What do you say, contributors? How does this idea sound?
I’m sure you’ve considered this already, but I’m a user. That means my opinion is automatically entitled. /s
