Woot is an interesting animal. In reality they are merely a blog, just the same as any other blog out on the interwebs. However, the deals that tend to show up on the site can quite often be jaw dropping. However, as any veteran wooter knows, these deals tend to be fleeting and can often be out of stock by the time you get to them. The depression of missing a great deal is a serious problem in America. Millions suffer from this crippling disease every day.
In comes useful linkage. Sure, this is just your standard blogspot blog, but one must look deeper young padwan. They have figured out that there are other places out on the internets to find those site products at equally good deals. So, say you miss that awesome price over a Woot, you can go check out useful linkage to find other places to get that deal. They check all the CSE’s, Amazon, and even hook you up with some related stuff to keep things interesting. It doesn’t change the foundations of modern physics or anything, but is just a useful site (and I think that’s all they’re trying to be).
Never knew what woot was. Thanks for the tip. They’re selling all sorts of crazy stuff today. And the Useful Linkage blog really is useful. Love it.
I’m a couple years late on this one, but I just came across this blog post and wanted to say, I really like the Useful Linkage blog. And I think I owe it all to Pocket Change. Thanks Become.com! Heh.
