I wrote a response to Erin's post on my personal blog http://nosenseoftime.org - I see many of her points even as a marketer. Since I'm more on the sidelines, I didn't think of her as knocking review blogs on a whole but rather the type of blog that reads like ad copy, with very little thought or personal voice. Maybe I read her wrong but I think it's about authentic voices - you can be authentic when you review something. You say where you got it (bought it, received it, etc) and you write your opinion. You write it with your own voice. When I do outreach, I offer suggestions but make no specific requirements on the part of the blogger because I'm seeking an honest, authentic voice. Sometimes I don't get it right and don't get the blogs that do it to my standards - yet there is still a return there (which is why marketers use them and thus propagate the cycle)
Anyway - This is a great discussion that we all need to have - whether you're a mommy blogger, a normal blogger, or people that operate brands like myself.

I used Gyminee but it was such a pain to update. I need something I can update with an iPhone app or something easy - so I can do it while I'm eating or I forget.
And yes - I plan on doing some weigh-in's. I need a good scale, which my gym has. I just need to GO there first....
