I would like to address anyone that is currently 'thinking' about running a review site. Please consider this unsolicited advice.

BEFORE you even get the thing up, for the world to see, decide in advance the how's and why's and when's of your eventual (oh yes. YES YES YES.. the day will indeed come when you decide to stop reviewing diaries, that's guaranteed) dismembership and post mortum for your review site.

You wouldn't offer to drop a letter in the mailbox for your neighbor and then not do it, right? Please nod your head. Ok. Also, kids in highschool, or even first/second year of college should think long and hard before starting something that can grow so fast and furious, and appear to be so big a failure if not maintained appropriately.

The point here is that even though a free review site doesn't owe anyone anything, and is normally doing a requested service, it is taken for granted that the owner of the site and the reviewer(s) will be responsible with the diaries submitted, and diariests` expectations. That's all I'm really talking about here. Treat other writers as you would want to be treated, folks.

Thank you.
