What's up with HC ?

Totally true, OG. Online mag reviews are mainly 'advertorial', in journalism-speak, from my 25 years in media (newspaper, radio, tv, magazine)advertising sales & buying. That is: you buy enough ads, we throw in a flowery review on the product of your choice. Along with reviews, all those 'new gear' things in mags like AG, GW, etc., are paid advertiser 'value-added' stuff of one form or another.

HC? Yeah, look hard enough thru the clutter and there's some useful info. Any review is subjective, so...

BTW: anybody have a sudden problem logging in to photobucket? My password wasn't recognized this am, while it was fine thru a few days ago (when I posted pics of the Tak I've offered f/s), about the time HC got trashed/hacked. I went for the 'forgot password' option, got the email & reset it on pb.

I figured I'd take HC's advice and went & reset it there too. I hadn't logged in there since early 07.

You might be able to find some reviews you want here http://www.jemsite.com/shopping/

I've been contributing there and although there aren't quite as many reviews as HC there still are hundreds.
