Introducing... reviews by me!

For the longest time, I have wanted to share some of the research that I do to pick the best product for my needs, and some of the thoughts I have on a product days, weeks, and months into using it.

I am somewhat of a fanatic about purchasing once, and using an item to its fullest extent—never overbuying, but also never settling for something that works half of the time (I guess that's a big reason I'm always a Mac... though I do see utility in a Windows PC or Linux workstation for some people).

In the Life is a Prayer.com Reviews section, I will be posting reviews of some of the products I have loved, and some that I haven't liked so much. All of the products I review are products that I have spent a lot of time researching for myself, and then using after purchase (for instance, the Nikon D90, or the Canon PowerShot G11, both of which I spent many weeks researching before deciding to buy). I will not review a product that I have not owned, and I won't lie in my reviews.

One of the greatest helps for me in making a purchasing decision is seeing the thoughts of people who have a similar workflow and lifestyle to mine. I think that, if you are someone who likes to be efficient, orderly, and not let his tools get in the way of his work (as I am), you'll find some good material in the reviews that I'll be posting to this new section of my site.

I'll be reviewing mostly tech gear, household items, and photography equipment... but anything's game!

Leave me a note here if there's anything in particular (category of product) you'd like reviewed, and I'll see what I can do.
