If you’ve ever searched online for reviews of a product before making a buying decision, you’re certainly not alone. One of the great things about peer recommendations and the ease of which we can find them now, is that you don’t need to wait for a magazine to write a possibly (probably) biased review of the product you’re considering. For me, I really appreciate being able to solicit opinions from real users of a product since I am often ordering something without ever seeing it in person (local shops don’t stock the majority of what I’m looking for).

We knew that we wanted to incorporate reviews into ESR as we easily agreed they are valuable, but we were unsure how we would implement them. We spent some time floating tons of ideas around in our discussions about what the reviews should be like, but we realized we needed to keep them simple for the first release and work on enhancements later. Afterall, the true value in a review comes only from what your peers have to say about a product and not how fancy the review looks.

If this is the first of these feature overviews you’ve read, you can see the rest here. You’ll find that every aspect of eatsleepride is tightly integrated to make it easy to share and get involved in any discussion. We hope that as the number of users grows, the reviews will expand to become a terrific source of information for anyone looking to their peers for input on their motorcycle related decisions.
