I've visited it a handful of times before...its niche is (was?) little technology hacks and tips that were occasionally useful in everyday life. For that, it does better. Little ways to organize yourself or your electronic gadgets better...that kind of thing.

Like most non-travel media (and even some travel media), when they try to tackle FF programs they fail spectacularly. It's a shame that reporters would even attempt to imitate the genius found on this board. No wait, it's not a shame at all: it's actually quite entertaining.
