(This is the post I wrote introducing UserCentric on the official blog at blog.u-s-e-r.com)

Hey all! Welcome to the first official post on the UserCentric blog! So… what’s UserCentric all about??? Glad you asked!

You know those little complaints or ideas we toss out on social networks like Twitter or Facebook about the stuff we use—only to watch them vanish into thin air? Yep, we’ve all been there! UserCentric is the spot where you can share those micro-reviews, and unlike regular social media, your user experience feedback gets neatly sorted with #Tags.

So, how’s it different from traditional product review sites? Three words: Ease of use! Most of us don’t have time to write long-winded reviews about the things we use. But we’re all posting quick takes on social media anyway—griping about product flaws or throwing out ideas for features we’d love to see. Why not gather all those micro-reviews in one place where others can actually benefit from our tips? That’s exactly why I created UserCentric.

We needed something that makes reviewing products fun and painless! That’s why I built UserCentric the way it is. Just start your review with the product name as a #tag—that’s it.

Review anything you use, one point at a time… Becoming a semi-pro product reviewer has never been this easy! 😀

Check out my reviews page on UserCentric at http://u-s-e-r.com/seejay to see how tidy UX reviews can look.
