"Wiki-Like" Peer Review Flounders In Nature
By Doug Caverly - Thu, 12/21/2006 - 2:04pm.
Wikis have been a hot topic this year, and most of the stories about them have been both positive and optimistic. Everybody likes wikis, a lot of individuals (and businesses and organizations) want them. But a recent open peer review experiment at the scientific journal Nature has failed, and some people are now second-guessing the model.

Is Your Site Too Vampy?
By Peer Reviewer - Thu, 09/04/2003 - 1:01pm.
I took a look at kiyonna.com and had a few thoughts to share. My first thought, even when I first saw the thumbnail link on webpro was that it was a porn site. The women are in such "vampy" moods and so intimate with each other, it definitely does not say clothes to me. It is OK, but I think it might make some people feel like the site is not for them. Even when I went to the home page it took me a bit to grock that the site was for womens clothes.
Making Chic Fonts
By Peer Reviewer - Thu, 09/04/2003 - 10:51am.
Overall I like the design and layout and I think it works well. The colors give it a very classy look and suggests a high-quality product. The product page seems very intuitive and I am a big fan of the "We also recommend.." cross-sell approach. I think this sets the stage for a functional shopping cart, which maximizes impulse puchasing trends. I think this a great design. It is easy to use and again, very intuitive.

The Felt Source Peer Review - Too Heavy on Graphics
By DevWebPro Peer ... - Fri, 07/18/2003 - 4:24pm.
I'm going to make this fairly quick as there are so many fundamental things wrong with this site technically, it's difficult to know where to begin. I guess I'll start with file size. The home page is over 240 KB. Although, it currently ranks as sixth in a Google search for "felt", this puts a stake through the heart of many of their potential visitors. The vast majority of visitors are still using dial-up modems and many of those aren't even 56 K. That means this site takes over a minute for the average visitor to load the Home page. Most of this is due to the over 200 KB used for images, but even the HTML coding is over 30 KB by itself.
