JohnChow’s blog is boring
For a while I thought it was just me who found his blog to be boring and offer the reader no real value. I’ve just looked at all those little rating stars he has under his posts, on his front page his posts have an average rating of 2.5, with 4 of the 10 posts under 2 stars. One of the posts above 2 stars is just a quote from another site, another is a paid review, another is him making the Technorati top 50 and another is a funny video from the onion.
On the other hand I think doshdosh.com needs to have those little stars, as tacky as they are I’m very certain you’d see every post above 4 stars, every post is quality content and it’s all going to help you make more money online, contrary to what johnchow.com does. I’ve never read anything on johnchow.com that would help me make more money.

I have to admit that I agree to an extent, but being boring seems attractive over at his place.

Yep Todd,
I too think that Johns blog is boring.. I see John turning into something else(i don’t think he’ll retire), dropping the blog idea sometime from now.
Reason - I don’t think he has any quality article to his credit.
I sincerely wish he did so that the popularity he enjoys has a reason.
Anybody thinks similar?

yeah, like he has such a big readership and he’s delivering photos of food and cars, could be doing so much more with it.
