I guess at this point, to avoid further offence to my good friends in the

press, I should emphasise that my personal view about not finding web

reviews interesting was intended to be a personal view, which is the reason

why I stated that it was a personal view. I don't like reading them but I'm

not suggesting other people don't.


Of course other people read them, and of course sites get valuable PR from

inclusion in print. And as long as business press still has an ink and paper

outlet it will be worth while covering site launches, etc. </climbdown>
