There have been a lot of posts here lately that are pretty thinly veiled advertising. I’m not opposed to companies coming here to tell us about their new products, and as someone who has been working off and on towards designing a few devices I completely understand how hard it is to get word out about products for niche markets like this.
But I think there’s a real lack of transparency with how some of these posts are presented, and it’s only once you spend enough time here to recognize the repeats or you dig into an account’s history that it becomes obvious.
I propose we have a stickied or weekly (monthly?) thread where companies can post to let us know about their new products. Thoughts?
