« Book Review - Sleepyhead by Mark Billingham | Main| Remembering the day before 9/11... »

An important milestone in my Amazon.com reviewing career...

Category Book Reviews

I've shared before that I post my reviews on Amazon where they can be voted on.  Amazon then ranks the reviews based on number of reviews, positive votes, and other mysterious criteria.  When I first started doing this, I was ranked around 25000.  I figured it might be fun to see if I could hit the top 1000 before year's end.  At that point you get a special "badge" next to your name in the reviews.

About six weeks ago, I was at 1099 and thought my goal was imminent.  Then there was a revamping of the web site, and I dropped down to 1450.  Bummer...  I slowly worked my way back up to 1109, and then we found out there had been a bug which caused the dramatic drops.  They fixed the error, reranked, and now I'm proud to announce...

Whoo-hoo!

Gravatar Image1 - Congratulations, Tom.

I enjoy your book reviews. Thanks.

Gravatar Image2 - So *that's* what happened during those "missing months"? Wow... that clears up one of those mysteries I couldn't explain... It also explains that sunburn on my... ahem... "pale areas"...


Gravatar Image3 - Ha! Enjoy it while you can. Just wait until our Amazon Reviewers for Truth series comes out next week. We have proof that you didn't really read any of those books, but were really spending all your time in a tanning booth with a waitress named Brandy. We have witnesses, sworn testimony, receipts. Ha!
