MoveMe.com: Product Review

You swore to yourself to never get married. And then you did.

You swore to yourself that your one-bedroom apartment would be enough. And then it wasn’t.

You swore to yourself that you’d never, ever, move away from the city—even to try and find a bigger place. But then you did.

Now what?

You’ve got a tiny apartment full of stuff that needs getting gone; you’ve got a much bigger house that stands empty; you need to get from Point A to Point B. But moving—the moving process—just sounds like such a headache: the packing, the moving, the driving, the shipping, and (above all) the having to constantly worry that some boneheaded mover is going to drop that vase your grandmother gave you. It’s all just so draining.

And then in steps www.moveme.com. And everything is easier.

First off: they’re not just a traditional moving service—it’s more like they collect useful information for anyone who’s looking to move and needs answers to their big questions of When, How, Who. They’ve got useful links to find stuff on removal companies, moving companies, and other tips and tricks for the first-time mover. It helps, too, that the site is tastefully arranged, with as many different options (a search bar, various tabs, and a helpline) presented with minimal clutter. From the homepage forward, the user is pulled in to exploring to their heart’s content until they know everything there is to know about moving, or until they feel completely
comfortable with the process—whichever comes first.

“MoveMe.com: The site that makes moving simple.” That’s a simple endorsement, but a truthful one. Sticking to the old adage that information is power, the UK-based site is powerful indeed, and is more than willing to offer up that power to any-and-all confused users. Click around for a few minutes or a few hours as the need dictates; prepare for an upcoming move that’s weeks off, or do it the night before. Need a removal company? Need ten removal companies? They’ll find it for you, no problem.

So you swore to yourself you’d never, ever, find an easy way to move all of your junk.

And then you did.

Glow-Sticks.Org: Product Review

The night’s just starting: you’ve just gotten all dressed up and you’re about to head out to a party at a friend’s house. Now, this particular friend had specifically told you not to head to the clubs—that their house, on this night, would have the most intense party around: all the best dancing, the best music, and the best drinks. How could you resist? So here you are ready to head out while the moon is still high and the hour is not sufficiently late for you to pass out on someone’s couch. You’re ready to go…but something is missing. You’ve dodged the clubs for what is supposed to be the most intense, life-changing, mind-shattering night of your life, and there is something a bit off about it. What do you need?

Glow sticks.

Www.glow-sticks.org offers exactly what you need. They’ve got everything—from flashing rave horns to flashing whistles to even flashing sunglasses—that will help light up your nightlife. (No pun intended…ok, a bit of a pun intended.) The vendor’s online boutique is well-designed, without too many tabs or scroll-down menus to bog down the Average Joe just looking for a cool favor to take out to his rave. The site even has a cool flash graphic across the top of every page that, along with its hot-pink font, keeps you in the party mood even when you’re not partying.

So flash-back: you’re standing there in the doorway of your friend’s house. You spent hours preparing for this night—this night that you’ve been told over and over again would be super-fantastic. And yet here you stand, staring, knowing something is wrong. Now, insert a glow-stick, as if from the heavens (come on now, humor me folks), into your hand. And it all clicks into place, doesn’t it? Thanks to glow-sticks.org, your night just got a whole lot better.

Peloop: Product Review

I’ve discussed some sensitive subjects before on this blog: I’ve praised or reviled films about illicit affairs, murder, torture, fornication, cruelty, sadism, abuse, and sexuality perversity. And yet there is one thing I’ve never discussed: penis enlargement. Well, now I’m going to—and I hope you stick around for the conversation. It seems a bit unorthodox, but in my drive to categorize and quantify all facets of media under the sun occasionally product reviews will enter my sphere. I’ve posted a few already, and now I’m posting another: it’s for peloop.com. It’s a website that offers guaranteed effective male enhancement. It won’t let you down.

Now I know exactly what you’re thinking: you’re thinking two things. One: “Why on Earth is this guy writing about this on his blog and why am I reading it?” And two: “Why should I care? I don’t need this.” And now I have an answer to both. One: you’re reading me because I’m compulsively addictive and delightful. And two: you don’t need need this—penis enlargement—but you’re curious. It presents opportunity. You’ve always felt a bit underwhelmed. They say it doesn’t matter, but who knows for sure? And besides, with all that’s going around, who would care if you went in for a little help?

It’s not as expensive as you’d think, and it’s easy, too. Which is why I’m here now, extolling the virtues of peloop.com. It’s male enhancement for everybody that always thought they either didn’t want to consider the option, or thought it was too weird to be worth the effort. News flash: it’s not. In fact, the website even has customer testimonials backing up their claim to success. And now, here I am doing the same. And if you can’t trust people these days…well then, you can’t trust me, right? And I’m always worth trusting.

Perry's: Product Review

The advantages of owning a computer and a high-speed connection never really cease to amaze me. Beyond the fact that the Internet can provide an endless stream of entertaining videos and music and television (because who actually uses a television anymore anyway?), as well as 24/7 commentary on just about any and every issue, the web also gives you the power to shop, and shop, and shop—and it’s biggest charm (at least for me anyway) is also perhaps its most obvious: no personal contact. There are no lines, no annoying customers to work around, or meddlesome salesmen to coax away from your carefully browsing person—no, none of that. Just you and the things you may want to buy. (There is, of course, that other great benefit of online shopping: pretty great prices.)

Because, as has become apparent, shopping of any kind that doesn’t actually take place in a store is pretty appealing to most people, there are now stores online for everything: books, music, clothing, erotic DVDs…whatever. Even vehicles—especially vehicles (how great is it to be able to pick out that new sports car and not have to shake hands with the oily dealer?), and when it comes to buying vehicles online, http://www.perrys.co.uk/new-cars is the place to be.

Beyond the fact that the website is totally user-friendly—it offers a handy interface on the home page that immediately lets a prospective buyer pull up any car by price range, model, etc.—it also offers helpful tips and insight through its blog: http://www.blog.perrys.cok.uk. They highlight award-winning cars, like the Vauxhall Insignia, as well as great vehicles on a budget, like the Vauxhall Corsa, and even focuses on humanitarian efforts of those occasionally-pesky salesmen (as with this story about a Vauxhall dealer).

All-in-all, Perry’s provides both accessibility and assistance for the first-time car-buyer, as well as the experienced pro—all with nary a hassle in sight. Gotta love the Internet.
