It’s SO quiet around here.

Is everyone off Christmas shopping or something? This weekend (including Friday night) has been dead so far!

[Steve]

Popping in to see what is happening.

Sadly, not a lot it seems. I spent most of yesterday launching the report for Experiment #2 (trying to get this site to pay its own running costs is still my priority) and today I’ve got a lot of stuff to do for my day job 🙁

I should be around more this evening and tomorrow.

I don’t suppose I could persuade you to leave a rating on Amazon?

Amazon reviews done on both reports for you Ed, said they would take a few days to appear. Hope it helps you out.

That’s amazing! Thank you, @Klogg!

Very much appreciated.

[Steve]

You’re welcome Ed, hope it helps you and the site out.

Well I’ve been told that getting that first review is the hardest, so I’m hoping your reviews will get the ball rolling. Amazon blocks you from reviewing your own publications, so I can’t do it myself.

Getting more readers for the reports will help support the site but, more than that, I’m hoping it will spread the word and get more people involved in both the community and the experiments.

Thanks again!

Amazon is SO slow with those reviews, @klogg.

Amazon strictly forbids offering incentives for reviews, but I wish there was some way to encourage the other two people who have bought report #2 to leave a review.

I was in the early stages of planning Experiment #3 but now that’s become #4 and I expect it to happen around late January 2020, assuming none of the ladies drops out in the meantime.

They did say it would take a few days, not sure why. I look forward to seeing them, available if required.

[Steve]

Looks like the reviews are up Ed.

[Ed]

They are. Thank you for the 5* reviews – that’s awesome!

[Steve]

You’re welcome. Hope it encourages a few more.

Now, how can I persuade the other two people who bought it to leave reviews also?

[Steve]

Still only one review but one person found them helpful.

[Ed]

That was probably me. I’m not sure if I count, but I clicked the button.

Well I’ve bought both #1 & #2.  The Fujitsu was a really good write-up and I find it exciting imagining I was taking part.  Half way through #2 and I now know I have to take part in one of these exercises, particularly if you do one outside.  The only problem is Cardiff is a long way off ☹.

I’ll get reviews done on both asap.

[Ed]

Apparently we need at least 25 reviews before Amazon will prioritise the reports in search results. Of course, we need to sell 25 copies before I can expect 25 reviews!

Thank you, @gary.
