Mini review!
This is something that’s been sitting on my desktop waiting for me to post for a while. Maybe someone knows what’s going on here.
On February 23rd, I received a record 218 hits. I’m not a stat-monkey or anything, but it struck me as odd.
ONE WORD MINI-CONCLUSION: Perplexing
TOTAL SCORE: 9
Doing something lame instead of something cool because it’s easier
They’re shit.
CONCEPT: 1/5 -Who invented these?
INNOVATION: 1/5 – They weren’t being creative.
SATISFACTION: 0/5 – Makes everyone angry.
EXECUTION: 0/5 – Poorly done.
FUN FACTOR: 0/5 – N/A
OVERALL: 0/10 – Never do this! Always put in your best effort!
Daily reviews of daily things. Articles, books, websites, smells, video games, food, sensations, concepts, conversations, drinks, activities, music, people, bits of earth, etc.
The idea is intriguing, and adds a feeling of usefulness to what would otherwise be a fairly straightforward journal. A formula will also be followed, including but not limited to:
Title – What the review is of.
What – More in depth blurb or explanation.
Body – Description and observations about the subject.
Pros/Cons – An optional component where the pros and cons of the subject are weighed.
Ratings – Rank the subject against other subjects. Subjects will be rated out of 5 in CONCEPT, INNOVATION, SATISFACTION, EXECUTION, and FUN FACTOR. There may also by an additional rating based on other observations of the subject as well as an OVERALL score which is out of 10, and is not an average of previous ratings.
There will also be swears.
CONCEPT: 3/5 – Interesting. Will be fun to watch play out.
INNOVATION: 2/5 – Blogs and Reviews are both nothing new, but at least an ounce of creativity is required which warrants a 2.
SATISFACTION: Remains-to-be-seen/5 – This will be updated in the future with an accurate score.
EXECUTION: 3/5 – The fact that I got off my ass and made a blog is pretty good. I’ll give myself a congratulatory ‘3′.
FUN FACTOR: 4/5 – If this ever gets below a ‘2′ I may have to discontinue writing.
OVERALL: 8/10 – Commitment and creative output are in conflict! Let’s watch!
