What 'sd' said.

Like many others, I have been hitting this site everyday since it started. What happened to the editors or curators?

Yeah, me too. "What happened" is that the site was purchased by the IDG Consumer & SMB group, so it's now about making gobs of money as opposed to providing a serious service.

While it's still marginally useful enough to keep on my (rather short) "daily visit" list, it's quality has been seriously deteriorating. I foresee a day when it will be removed from my list.

My response is always to "vote with my dollars." In this case, that means I no longer deliberately review this site's advertisers when I'm making purchases. Instead, I now only click on links from the advertisers presented by more useful sites on my "daily visit" list. While the lack of my paltry on-line purchases (<$10K/yr.) isn't going to break 'em, if a thousand people follow the same strategy, it'll be meaningful. If 10x that many do it ... who knows, maybe with some number we can make it worthwhile for them to sell the site to someone who actually cares. $;-)
