The Verge launches new reviews section Guidebook

Dieter Bohn of The Verge writes about its new reviews section, Guidebook.

Bohn writes, “We’ve got an all-new Tech Reviews page where you can quickly find everything we’re doing, broken down by section. We’ll be pinning our most important categories where you can find them, and updating each section more often. You’ll be able to scroll down this main page and see everything, all in one place.

“A new How-To section will focus on actually using all of the products and services we’re covering. We’ll have simple, small tips and in-depth how-to articles that can take you from a novice to an expert (or an expert to a wizard) without feeling like you’re slogging through a textbook.

“This is My Next is back! We’ll be updating our best of lists on a rolling basis instead of a seasonal schedule. But don’t worry, our TIMN video is sticking around, and we’ll have new episodes later this year.

“Editor’s Choice. Yep, we’re doing it. We’re slapping a big ol’ badge on our very favorite products. This award will be given to products we can (and do) personally recommend to our friends, family, and random strangers on the street. Often the Editor’s Choice will be a product that’s the very best you can get — but not always! Sometimes a product transcends purely objective reasoning and is great just because it is. It’s for our personal picks, the stuff we use, we think you’ll want to use, or has earned a special place in our hearts.”
