Siginet Posted October 8, 2005 Posted October 8, 2005 this has been long overdue! hope to see this in more magazines!Thx! Me Too!
Siginet Posted October 24, 2005 Posted October 24, 2005 Looks like the online review is working now. I like the reviews it got! Direct Hit!
prathapml Posted October 29, 2005 Author Posted October 29, 2005 Yes, the online link to article is working now....But the descriptions of screenshots is mixed up with a different linux article!
Siginet Posted October 29, 2005 Posted October 29, 2005 Yeah I noticed that. Is Direct Hit the highest rating?
prathapml Posted October 29, 2005 Author Posted October 29, 2005 No, "direct hit" is not a rating!Its a quick summary of the article, with all the important details in a few lines. Its made for people who want to read all articles quickly - they can see the "direct hit" box, & decide if the review is about something they are interested in, or not. That way, they need not read the whole page to know what its about, & can read only the articles they are interested in, to save time.
