ShortCuts, or, The Customer is Always Right

Shortcuts2_2 I knew I didn't like that name!













I am happy to announce that a blogger/Top Chef obsessive known as Amuse-Biatch (http://amuse-biatch.blogspot.com/) wrote in to say that there was a solution to the MetaKnife problem:

ShortCuts.

Genius, I tell you.

It's got The Knife thing going on, a little Hollywood with the reference to the late great Mr. Altman and, most of all, it makes sense. ShortCuts are exactly what I want from reviews at The Knife - a cut to the chase and summing up the multifarious opinions of others, all in one fell swoop.

(Amuse-Biatch also pointed out another fatal flaw in MetaKnife, as if it needed another: It had an unfortunate Groucho Marx thing going on, as in, "I never MetaKnife I didn't like." Eeesh.)

The only thing I don't like about ShortCuts? I didn't think of it myself.
