very nice laid out, but poorly written article with illiterate grammar utilized for many headings, with some sections thrown in w/o any detail. seemed like rush “filler” work rather than a proper article. Hey, just stick to icons and whatnot and leave the heavy lifting to others, like “Smartpoint” ( If I want another list of ‘not much’ I can always go to Nourias (sic) site!)

I agree with Mark. It’s hard to read an article when grammar sucks.
