Wed, 16 Aug 2000 01:06:10 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author eeks - <bias explained>I spent 7 years of my life learning latin. Wait, hold up, you say? Why would anyone dive into a dead language? What vocational value does latin bestow upon those who embrace it? Eeks, do you hate yourself and have a strong...

Sat, 12 Aug 2000 03:22:47 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author eeks - Pause your TV. Rewind your TV. Watch TV without commercials. Have your VCR tape shows that you don't even know are on, shows that you end up liking but you didn't even know it. Whoa. Stop Salivating. This can be yours AND MORE, from TiVo, the...

Belly Dance like an Egyptian

Tue, 28 Mar 2000 06:51:51 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author eeks - Nope, that is not the latest hit by the glorious Bangles, but my mind is wandering once again. It’s taking me to another sunny place. A place of belly dancers, camels, and sunshine. More importantly it’s a place I cannot physically visit...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author eeks - I am on vacation right now. Rejoice. I am here enjoying the many grayed splendor of non-sunny Providence. Well, as part of my “sunny”, dreary spring break here in my dorm in Providence, I am embarking upon a vicarious excursion of writing...

Sat, 18 Mar 2000 10:43:44 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author eeks - I think this ad made me ZOUND up all my food. This ad is just gross, and while it may get people to notice the ad itself, I think the ad is the weakest of the 4 at getting people to join Epinions.

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author eeks - Half a ZOUNDS! This ad has gotten the least attention, which makes sense because this one is the most conventional by far. Not to say it isn't likable.

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author eeks - ZOUNDS, this Ad hasn't gotten NEARLY as much attention as the iMac one, and that's a shame, because this commercial is the best of the lot. Keep in mind, these commercials are NOT meant to represent our site, they are meant to LURE...

iMac: EEK!EEK!EEK! A Gun!

Tue, 14 Mar 2000 03:18:33 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author eeks - Zounds, this ad is an attention getter like no other. First off let me set something straight. This ad is not supposed to represent the epinions community per se, it is supposed to LURE people into the epinions site. That is what the objective of...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author eeks - Dual displays have always fascinated me. I had the opportunity to play with a CAD station utilizing dual 21 inch monitors and was in heaven the entire 3.2349 minutes the AutoCAD deity allowed me to mess with his sacred machine.

3Dfx Voodoo3 3000: Tepid Pixel Pump

Fri, 10 Mar 2000 03:49:59 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author eeks - I am not so pumped about this Pixel Pump, which has been my main graphics squeeze for 9 months out of the last year. Hmm, where to begin. The Voodoo 3 is a boring, mediocre computer 2D/3D video card. 3dfx, the manufacturer of Voodoo 3 video cards, is a...

Groceries: Coca-Cola is AMBROSIA

Mon, 28 Feb 2000 08:56:05 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author eeks - I don't really have any vices. Ok, the Red Sox(NOMAH) and Peter Gammons column combine into one craving, even though Gammons left the Globe and moved to ESPN. Skating is another, both doing (hockey) and watching (Michelle Kwan - grace personified). The...

A WASTE of money better spent on REAL books

Sun, 27 Feb 2000 02:50:30 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author eeks - This product does makes no sense to buy. I received this as a Christmas present from my dad (he gave me the coolest gift ever last year – a PalmTheater DVD player), and at first, I did not know what to think. It certainly does look cool, resembling a...

Sat, 26 Feb 2000 21:19:54 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author eeks - There are a lot of good choices out there for 2 way radios, from brands like Motorola, Sony and Kenwood. The one problem seems to be the price. At about $80-100 for one unit (150-200 for a pair), that is just way too expensive in my book for recreational...

Let's Talkabout the Talkabout

Sat, 26 Feb 2000 19:34:31 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author eeks - As a kid, I always thought walkie-talkies were the coolest. It made me envious of the secret service, janitors and even Gary Coleman-esque security guards. There were the kiddie walkies which basically had a range of a Popsicle stick and carried more...
