Will 'Wize' help us buy the Right product?

November 25, 2006 by serge the concierge

When shopping for such products as a new digital camera, a flat screen TV, or even more mundane things like a vacuum cleaner, office or computer products the sheer number of options might make it hard to choose. For my digital camera purchase back in July, I used CNET Reviews . For a wider range of products, Minneapolis based WIZE offers product rankings based on a combination of experts and users reviews. Besides the products I mentioned above it also looks at strollers, car seats, shavers, humidifiers, blenders and more.
I read about them earlier on Techcrunch but failed to mention them.
A short piece on their service on Lifehacker prompted me to correct my omission.
Check Wise and let me know what you think of it.

It could be used in combination with Frucall, a price comparison tool that I mentioned in '4 Digital Life services worth trying' back in October.

2 Wines on my Table for Thanksgiving

Nov 24

Red Zinfandel is often the first choice to go with the Thanksgiving turkey. This year I strayed. The red I picked was The Black Chook from South Australia, 2005 vintage. This full bodied red wine is a Shiraz (95%) and Viognier (5%) blend, it clocks at 15% alcolhol. According to wine maker Ben Riggs 'Chook' is the Australian word for chicken. You should find it for around $15.00. Read the Judge's Comments for the Award...

In our time pressed era, one can combine taking a shower and working on their SAT thanks to the Intuitive Learning Company series of 6 SAT based shower curtains including the one pictured here. The company's goal is to offer stress free learning tools. I first read about them in the 'Trendspotter' column of the Financial Times. The Intuitive Learning Company is based in Minneapolis as was Wize my previous topic.
