Advantages: They work, they also stop you picking on the spot
Disadvantages: £4.99 for 20 dots

...I am not a big fan of T-zone products. Most of the time they seem rather ineffective and stink. BUT THESE DOTS ARE A HIDDEN GEM. ***Where do u get them and how much are they?*** The only place where I could get them was Boots. Although superdrug stocks other t-zone products, I could never find spot dots there. At some point during winter I could not find them anywhere at all. They are £4.99 per pack. The pack contains two individually wrapped strips, each containing 10 dots. That makes it around 50p a dot I strongly recommend looking out for special offers in boots. T-zone products go on 2 for £5. Which makes it 25p a dot. And than you grab as many dots as u can. The most common situation however is there are no dots left :( ***What are the dots like *** They look like transparent round pieces of sellotape, around... Read review

Advantages: They are free and can give your webpage a professional look
Disadvantages: If you dont receive 25 visitors in 90 days your .tk can be claimed by someone else

...If you have heard people talking about .tk or read anything about them on the internet then you are probably curious as to what it is for. Because there are different endings for each country, E.g. .fr is for France, .de is for Germany, .co.uk is for the uk, but what could .tk stand for. Turkey perhaps, nope, it stands for Tokelau. Tokelau is made up of 3 small atolls located in the south pacific and their total area is 10 sq km, with their highest point being just 5m above sea level. There is a population for all 3 atolls of just 1,405 people. In September 2003 a group of people from the Dot TK team went to all three atolls to present what the Internet can mean for such a small country. This information was considered carefully, and just recently it was decided that is would be worth giving the internet to the three atolls... Read review

Advantages: Some good food
Disadvantages: Quailty inconsistent, poor presentation, poor service

...walls and white plaster walls with massive brightly coloured abstract canvasses dotted here and there, not offensive but not exceptional either. Both starters were served in massive white bowls; actually the circumference of the dishes was massive but the hollow where the food sat was rather small which had the effect of making the portion look quite stingy. The depth of the hollow combined with the small diameter meant if was really difficult to cut up one's food. The flavour and texture of my black pudding was excellent and the spices worked well with the creamy yolk of the perfectly poached egg. Unfortunately the miserly serving of spinach hidden under the black pudding was over wilted and resembled a tiny portion of vividly coloured snot. The sweet crab meat had been mixed with too much mayonnaise and too much red chilli. At the peak... Read review

Advantages: All the tracks are better then their older stuff
Disadvantages: You only get 13 tracks, it makes their older stuff look pale.

...in 2007, and they are still with them today. -------------The Tracks---------- Well, what you probably opened this review for, you want to know whether you should buy this CD or not, I say go for it anyway, even if you hate the music, because ' The Black Swan' is a movement that is against the discrimination of homosexual and negro people, which I find worth supporting. However, its great to have a good CD from somebody you support, so here goes. 1. "Choose Your Fate" - 3:34 ~ 9/10 First Track, starts with spoken text, like a radio broadcast. Brutaly broken, and the music backing the breakout is great, sounds quite different from the older SOTY, neverminding the vocals, that have not changed that much, which can be a plus or a minus, there are some heavier parts, which personally does really great in my taste. Definatly a cut above... Read review

Advantages: free domain names | loads of features
Disadvantages: could loose free domain name after 90 days | only allowd 3 free domains per account

...This is a review on the website www.tk or www.dot.tk to some. This site gives you loads of stuff that is useful for your website, and that thing is a Domain Name. You can sign up free for 3 free Domain Names. There are some disadvantages to this website also, but I will discuss more about that later down in the review. This website allows you to get free domain names, that are reasonable, some of them you will need to pay for, so if they don’t allow you to get it as a free domain, and then change the title a bit, then you will have your domain name. But before you can do all that, you will need to register for the website. Which is fast and easy, and you will like what will happen when you get your first Domain name, you will be pleasantly surprised. Dot.tk puts your website on numerous search engines under the keywords you put... Read review

Advantages: Easy to use
Disadvantages: Not very effective

...Every so often i get really greasy and erupt in spots and make them worse by covering them with products and inevitably spreading germs. I bought these Spot Dots to see what they would do. There are quite expensive at about £5 per packet, and you can only use the individual spots once. They look like little round circles of cellotape that you stick on top of your spots- its all fairly straight forward, and they are very easy to use. It depends how spotty you are I suppose, if you have one or two spots that are nicely spaced apart it will be easy to place the dots over your spots as they are the right size. That was what I was looking for, but if you have acne or other skin problems it may be harder to know where to place the dots. Also its strange that they are see through as you can tell they are there- it looks like you have... Read review

Advantages: A real focal point in any garden - the black stands out amongst green plants
Disadvantages: Spreads quite rapidly. Prone to wind-burn.

...Ophiopogon is one of the easiest and most rewarding grasses to cultivate. The stunning colour makes it stand out in any garden. A real bonus are the shiny black berries in winter that trail from the plant like a weeping willow. It is hardy and does not require any attention - fabulous if you get snow - the black shining out through the white is gorgeous. Although only short it does clump up really well - so make sure you give it plenty of space. A few years and the clump looks fantastic - especially when nestled among all the green-leaf plants. I would recommend it for any garden - once you've got one - you only need to lift and divide (really easy - just use a bread knife!) and you can then dot the babies in other areas of your garden. Well worth the expense of one plant. Thoroughly recommended.... Read review

Advantages: You can be violet.
Disadvantages: You can't stay violet forever.

...progeny. No no; these dots are Ciao dots. A Ciao dot is that little icon by your name there. Or is it avatar, not icon? I always get those muddled. A Ciao dot is an icon/avatar/whateveritis that is a little code for the amount of "community points" you've garnered since you joined. If you're brand spanking new then yours will be white (bad choice aesthetically speaking because they have to put a black line around so you can see it there and none of the others have a black line, and well, y'know, it's not organic, smooth design that, now is it? Tsk). I'm violet. That Ken/madcabbie geezer is bronze. That nice lady Sarah/Trampus is silver. Everybody's something. What colour are you? To save you looking at the relevant information pages I'll just paste the list of points and colours correlations: White: From 0 Community Points Green: From 1... Read review

Advantages: See text of opinion
Disadvantages: See text of opinion

...~ ~ I’ve been prompted into putting fingers to keyboard and to write an opinion about the Community Points system (from here on in to be called the ‘dots’) here at Ciao, after reading a few other opinions recently that were, well, slightly less than fulsome in their praise of the ‘dots’ system. The reason I’m posting this opinion in a ‘catch all’ Category, is that I’ve already used my op in the Community Points Category for a general rant against the “opmeisters” in Germany, when they decided to reduce and stop payments in certain Categories altogether here at Ciao UK back in October of last year. (I’ll probably get Ciao to change it to the proper Category soon) That’s another story, and I STILL maintain that a better and fairer payment system could... Read review
