Its Dead!

I don't know if its because of my timezone, but i've noticed this place to be kind of like a Ghost Town. Not much posting, not many articles.

Have you guys thought about talking to some of the big companies to get them to send you products to review?

Or holding some more competitions?

Getting more people in on writing articles?

Advertising?

I've got 2 months of free time so if you need a recruit to write some articles i'm all for it.

Just some suggestions.

Cheers.

Well, I have a feeling its fairly dead due to being Thanksgiving week =P
As for your other points:

We're always looking for more writers.. More content = More visitors = Happy people all around, PM or IM me and we can discuss how we do article writing =P

We normally only advertise when we do a large review (Driver benchmarks, giveaways, etc)

We were working with two companies to get a few products to review, some good ram, and a heatsink/fan combo, however, both companies never responded to my last email, so, i think I need to follow up on that. Again, PM me on the writing articles thing (I'll likely respond on sunday). I'm on vacation =P

Impact nailed it. Both of us, who are usually the one's who do most of the behind the scenes type things, have been incredibly busy with school (I had 3 midterms last week), and now thanksgiving break. During thanksgiving we've come home to spend time with family. Yeah, just like Impact said, PM us if you'd like to help out. I think we didn't realize at first that we'd need much help beyond the two of us, but we definitely could use it! ^_^
