AnandShimpi had an interest in computer hardware, and in the spring of 1997, he created a small Web site on a free hosting service to publish his product reviews.
At that point, Shimpi wasn't interested in advertisers, so he asked the manufacturer to send a piece of hardware for him to review for the site.
Because readers trust what they read there, Shimpi, who is editor-in-chief and CEO, is very careful to ensure there is no overlap between the editorial side of the house and advertising.
