I like the idea, but what would be the advantage of using it over Amazon? Amazon has a robust database of products, a well entrenched and fairly accurate review system, and all the product specs given by the creator. You also have the option of buying it on the spot.

I think this sort of idea would work best for a type of product that, unlike consumer electronics, would not be readily available on Amazon. Maybe something like cars?

I'd use it.. Currently I just google for '<product> <model> review' or so and have to manually sift through the results until I find a credible source. You could also include links to PDF manuals, firmware Updates, software, etc.

Though I can see it being hard to gain traction in the beginning when the database is small and not very useful.
