Thursday is Teahouse/Tea Room, Accessory and Brand Review Day!

I’ve been on a roll with reviewing these iPhone and iPod Touch applications lately. There seem to be more everyday and each is a little different. Some provide custom timer options, others limit you to specified choices. How does Tea Timer by Decane fare?

This application is the sibling application of “Tasting Notes”. But in the case of “Tea Tasting Notes” from App Shop, LLC… I’m seriously disappointed.

Monday is Teahouse/Tea Room, Accessory and Brand Review Day!

Ahhh, software. Always the promise of making our lives easier, and always the worry that it won’t. In the case of “Tasting Notes” from App Shop, LLC… I’m mixed.

I’ve been watching the hits for months, tracking when traffic waxes and wanes during the weeks and have come to one overriding fact… I get less traffic on Mondays than most any other day of the week.

It is for this purpose that beginning in August, accessory and product reviews will be swapping with news, culture and history.

You can thus expect to see the following items reviewed on Thursdays moving forward:

• Books
• Software
• Infusers
• Kettles
• Water Warmers
• Cozies
• Tea Houses/Tea Rooms
• Tea Storage containers

Moving forward you can expect the following to appear on Mondays

• News
• Culture
• History
• Event coverage
• Announcements
• Updates
• New feature introductions
• Interviews with tea industry experts and entrepreneurs.

I believe this new schedule will jive better with you as my audience and certainly hope it will help drive traffic in a more predicatable manner.

Rather frequently I am asked how this blog makes me money. My answer is always “it doesn’t.” While this is certainly the way I envisioned the site as a whole, I have thought long and hard about this decision.
