Yes, as well as just starting writing opinions for Mouthshut.com, I also run the website under review, Big-B.co.uk. So, you might see the following as somewhat biased, but I am going to try and evaluate what we have on our site, so you can see (from my point of view) where my site is going.
Big-B.co.uk Homepage (https://big-b.co.uk)
This page is dedicated to the directory, and also many other areas of big-b.co.uk including (but definitely not limited to) movie reviews, game reviews, cars, registering your own dot.com address, the latest UK headlines, PC downloads, polls, skins for programs like ICQ and Yahoo! Messanger etc...
bbCarzone.co.uk (https://bbcarzone.co.uk)
Features the latest in car reviews and information. As you read this, me and my team are hard working on adding the finishing shine to the new version of bbCarzone, which will feature much more detailed information about hundreds of car manufacturer's and a large directory of direct links to sites about your car model. Within three clicks from bbCarzone.co.uk you can find relevant information and sites about your model or make of car. We also have detailed information about car audio, how to maintain and tune up your car, car clubs, car classifieds, electric cars, racing, toy cars and loads more!
big-b.co.uk Play (https://big-b.co.uk/play)
My latest baby! This site is going to be my all time favourite to make. This is because it taps in to one of my favourite subjects: Computer games! On Play, I hope to feature lots of information about computer games including news, reviews, previews, shopping, free downloads, guides, cheats, solutions, anime, downloads, patches and tons more! This is one of my favourite areas of my site because of the plans I have for making tons of forums, so you can meet people interested in the same games as you are.
Also, as part of PLAY, is something that I really want to focus on. This is hopefully going to be one of the biggest things ever! Like Linux now allows anybody to download an OS, and have it running, and anybody can get together and help write it... Big-B.co.uk has joined this revolution. But not with UNIX-style OS'es, but with computer game guides. If you think you have what it takes to help write excellent guides to games, then get involved. Anybody can help write the latest guides to games... Instead of waiting for some poor bloke to finish writing his guide, with openGuides we all work together for the same end-result, a perfect guide! And with this guide, anybody can publish it on their website (as long as they are not on our banned list). The only thing we don't agree to is commercial use of our guides. We have stringent guidelines about commercial use, and you will not find any of our work thrown on the front of magazines or as special inserts in cheat guides.
This free revolution has allowed us to make a ground-breaking OS and now anybody can publish that. We also have people working together on Mozilla, the new version of Netscape, of which I am using right at this very moment. And that is another amazing feat. Not to mention some BSD based OSes like OpenBSD and FreeBSD. This is the next page in Open Source history.
If your as excited as I am about open source computer game cheat guides, go have a look at our message board...
https://thebang.community.everyone.net/commun_v3/scripts/topics.pl?NodeID=286497&ClientID=28102
and start working. Our motto is ''Play together, learn together, write together.''
Overall, my site is a sprawling creation that I hope to make in to an area dedicated to everything that people like me and my various friends and co-partners are interested in. Hope you enjoyed reading this, but as I wrote this being the author, you should really come up with your suggestions for my site, and I am always open to suggestions and additions to the site. Submit your own review, or send me an email via my profile page. As it is my site, I am giving it a 5/5, but putting No comment for all the details, because I don't want to comment!
Thanks for listening!
Tom
