Nextpowerup postitive feedback thread (unofficial)

I don't know if there is a thread, or other place for this, so I decided to place it here. Positive feedback is always nice to hear at least.

Personally, I am liking nextpowerup. I may only read 10% of the news posted there, but that is no less than my other sources of news. If I read an article I particularly like I look to see who wrote it. Most often it happens to be Dean(aka kreij).

i too very much like it. it has been added to techpowerup and fb as my default tabs that load when i open my browser. The nvidia "shield" project, 720 and ps4 specifications are all things i wouldn't have seen till maybe weeks or months later when i googled it. +1 to NPU!

I look for Kreij's Friday night editorial just about every week.

All of the writers there are doing a great job imho

Is there a link to NextPowerUp anywhere on TPU or TPU Foums? I honestly forgot all about the website since it was launched until I saw this thread. Ventured back over there and the content is nice- a way to be reminded of the site when I visit TPU would be great.

Any chance of an Android App coming around?

On the front page of tpu there is a little box with npu news. Right below the reviews and above the tpu news.

Honestly?

You need to work on the layout. It's just all over the place.

OK, I see that now. Maybe something in the pull down menu would be helpful.

Thanks all. The regular writers on NPU work hard hunting down and writing new and I too think they are doing a great job.

I've been stupid busy with work and home the last few weeks, but I promise to get the Friday editorials back on track, and you will also be seeing more interviews and other things you won't find here on TPU as they are unique to the scope of NPU.

Feel free to comment on any of the news posts and you will find our NPU e-mail addresses in the "About" section of the site if you would like to send ideas or whatever.

I really really like NPU, not to make the W1zz mad, but I'm starting to like it more than TPU, so much more news. I just love reading about all the new tech! I check into NPU and TPU at least 3-7 times a day.

^i almost agree, for news i definitely go there. However TPU has the review of products and the links for products reviewed by other sites, doesn't get much better than that for news on current products. Plus i always check out the FS/FT forum section so TPU still wins out a touch for me. NPU was a fabulous idea though. Well done W1zzy, well done!

I really like the site, the only thing that sucks is it's categorized under gaming and is blocked from my work computer. Other than that, I really like the content.
