Can anyone find Solo by Noel Perrin on Epinions?
I am having a hard time locating Solo By Noel Perrin on Epinions.
I have a multipage essay style review ready to post.
Thanks!

Another question:
I have several links in my review, set as footnotes. Can anyone tell me how to make hyperlinks, outside of epinions work? |

I don't believe it's possible to do so within reviews.

RE: Thanks Amy!
Yeah, I don't think external links work.
For me to be certain, I'd have to get off my duff and actually write a review. Uh oh.

Quote: rgathright Can anyone tell me how to make hyperlinks, outside of epinions work? live links within the body of a review are restricted to the epinions.com domain. If you insist that they have to be live (given how monumentally lazy, and generally uninformed so many websurfers seem to be, I can see your lack of desire to make people - oh, the horror! - cut the URL text and paste it in an address bar), why not put a live link to your profile page, which is permissible; and put the external links there, which is also permissible. You can use the "internal link" (anchor tag) syntax on your profile page to make certain that people go directly to the list of footnotes instead of wandering (or wondering) all over the place looking. It wouldn't be that different from using endnotes instead of footnotes. Just be certain that the footnote link off the essay pops up a new window instead of taking people out of the middle of what they're reading.

RE: Just posted my review
Quote: rgathright I just posted the review here: [---] Links to reviews - yours or anyone else's - from wihtin these boards are verboten by community standards. The short version is that linking to one's own review is considered an attempt to boost one's own hits (an action that,when practiced on a regular basis as it is by some members, is called "link pimping"), so in the interest of even-handedness, links to all reviews, your own or not, are discouraged.
HTH.

As rex/scmrak suggests, simply saying 'dang I finally got the thing done, man was it a beast to finish..!' . . .well, at least it would not be a link and the clever user who might be interested in reading it would be able to find it.
Just a thought.

RE: Just posted my review
The goal of posting my review was to make people hear about EV's and the book Solo. Solo has been out of print for years and is as a result, has very very few hits by the public on the web.
I am sorry to report, that my plan has worked. The world will never be that same. I made people read a review that will never yield me more than $.0001. Someone please stop the madness now! 46 people on Epinions now know that Fuel Cells require more platinum to produce 1Kw than is in a typical wedding ring. Oh the humanity!
Even as I write this a review on the book: "Future Drive: Electric Vehicles And Sustainable Transportation" by Daniel Sperling, is in the works. I hope the review on the out of print book encourages people to rediscover it as well.
