New Feature
A Little Less Conversation

By Jorge Figueiredo - March 28th, 2010

Convo

Writing is not necessarily for everyone. This could be due to a number of reasons: lack of time; fear; no inspiration; missing brain due to Zombie Apocalypse; I’m sure you can think of your own excuses. At Toronto Thumbs, we want to make sure that our readers do not miss anything that we might have to offer. Information is precious, and any man with a small member will tell you that “size doesn’t matter”. And so, A Little Less Conversation is born.

The concept is a simple one. Basically, a messenger conversation about something (usually an Iphone App) is transcribed and posted here for your viewing pleasure. Should anyone require a more in-depth look, we can gladly post something here or in the forums. Easy peasy.

For instance:

Jorge: So, Rituro, what did you think of the track your facial hair growing app? Did it measure up?
Rituro: Har dee har har. Actually, it was actually fairly useful! It grew on me.
Jorge: Well done, sir.
Rituro: Thanks. It is one of those apps that you never knew you needed! It’s a shame it costs so much.
Jorge: Maybe if it does well enough they will shave the price a little.
Rituro:

I’m hoping that this sort of review style takes off. For one thing, while we get comments and forum activity, it wouldn’t hurt to have more. This feature will hopefully encourage people to participate!

Enjoy!

    So is the picture above supposed to be the before & after shots? ‘Cause you do look completely different!

  4. I went from being ugly and white to ugly and brown.

    It was not the success I was hoping for.

    I guess I need to brush up on my terrible puns if I want to participate.
