Conor’s Review Blog

We were recently reviewed over at KillerStartups.com which was a nice boost.I’m subscribed to their RSS feed to see all their new reviews of web-sites.

They have not been around very long but seem to be gaining quite a bit of traction. It looks like they are filling a void vacated by TechCrunch which reviews fewer and fewer start-ups each week.

The main advantages of the site are the fact that they cover a wide gamut of apps and you can vote on whether you think the site reviewed is a “Killer Startup” or not.

The biggest disadvantage I see is that they are doing too many reviews per day. Many of them therefore end up looking very similar with the same comments on each e.g. how will they make money.

My main recommendation to them is that they start using hReview for the reviews. This is not just so that we can aggregate their content and our users vote on the quality of their reviews but also because it turns those reviews into portable objects that they could reuse on other sites or in other ways.
