Rating:  - not too impressedWith my job I usually don't wake up until 11am so a sleeping mask has become critical for me to get a good nights sleep. Anyways, until now I have always used the freebie masks you get when you fly international. I have to say some of the freebie ones I have had were better than this one. The strap is nice and easy to adjust with the velcro elastic strap, but it goes right over your ear which can be quite uncomfortable. Some light is visible from the nose part as well. The good things are the material that is used it really soft and it conforms to the face well. Rating:  - Not bad overall - worth the priceThere are tons of other reviews so I'll make it short and sweet. Overall it's a great product, especially for the price. A little light gets in at the bottom, but it's very comfortable. It doesn't hug your eyes which is sooo nice. For the price, it's a great product and we're very happy with it (got one for my hubby too). Initially I was a little miffed they didn't ship to APO addresses (I'm stationed in Germany) so I had it shipped to my parents and then to me. However one of the customer service representatives contacted me saying they DO ship to APO addresses, and it was some bug through Amazon. She apologized for the inconvenience and I have to say I was rather impressed. ... Read More Rating: - Not Bad, but there are issues!I have tried all types of sleeping mask. I got this one after reading the reviews and I must say it is a good mask, but like all things it has its flaws. Cons: I only had this make for a few months and haven't washed it yet, the inner cover/material has started to peel apart from the layers. Today it has completely fallen off. I still use it without the inner material, but now since that has came off the Eye Interior Chamber doesn't protrude out anymore. Which is why I brought this? Also it comes off my face a lot at night, due to I am a side sleeper. I think this should have been an adjustable slider band instead of Velcro. Pros: It does do a good job keeping out the light and I love the breathable materials. ... Read More Rating: - Nice MaskI bought this for my trip overseas and I end up using it regularly at home. It's true that light gets in from the nose. However, this doesn't bother me that much. I do like how the eyes are contoured. Rating: - Overrated...Hey, I would of given this a 4, but it seems to be quite overrated. I only say that because *You Can Still See Light! (at the bottom of your nose) I've tried several sleep mask, and the only ones that I've seen that gives you 100% complete black out, are the Tempurpedic or Memory Foam ones... The good part about this sleep mask, over the Tempurpedic one is that is very light... it'll be more gentle on your face. Also the light that gets through is 70-80% cured if you closed your eyes... |
Ted Shelton: "Frankly I felt that BlogOn was a waste of time and money."
I think the BlogOn conference was overproduced. In the name of professionalism the organizing firm turned off potential speakers, oversubscribed sponsors, etc.
I would have liked a debatable topic (aside from *blogging = journalism*. Two people slugging it out. Or a devil's advocate taking challenges from the floor.
I would have liked more hard numbers. Facts. Charts. Diagrams. We have the analytic tools to BS-check them; harder on vague opinions and single-points-of-observation.
I found it disturbing how much money was being commanded (from both attendees and sponsors) for a conference at a university. Maybe it was because it was at Berkeley? Maybe we should have taken over a community college or a Cal State or a DeVry. The facilities costs would have been cheaper at least. I heard an organizer apologize and say the next one would be at a hotel, like that would have been better.
Cost wasn't the whole problem. We're at a stage where early adopters are meeting folks who want to leap the chasm. Huge gaps in knowledge, experience, context, culture, vocabulary. It's the gap.
There are huge ideas to be explored, even in the world of applying blogs to media strategy and the enterprise. And most of the big ideas weren't even on the agenda at BlogOn. Probably because it was catering to those who want to commercialize, fund, and otherwise exploit (excuse me, "get in on") the emerging medium.
Let's fork these conferences so advanced topics on business and technology and culture fit the participants.
