This is a first post, on a dead-stock Wordpress.com installation.

Why should I bother to read about your views on Samsung when:

1. you show neither data nor other facts on which to base your opinion

2. you don't disclose anything about yourself?

For all I know you could be a Samsung employee trying to increase the value of his stock benefits.

The great thing about the internet is that people can express their point of views. If the idea is a good and interesting one it will be discussed. Think of it as an anonymous letter to the editor if you need.

The linkbait title doesn't help their case.

You both make good points but this blog post still smells like a cheap marketing stunt.

I was fascinated by the out-of-box Wordpress installation. The author didn't even get rid of the "hello world" post or the tagline that says "just another wordpress blog". That's what made this article so eerie - it's a first blog post on 0% customized Wordpress blog.
