The test period is over, thanks to everyone who participated! I wrote about the benefits of shaving oil last October. I really like using shaving oil.

Most of the time I really like my Google Nexus 7 Android tablet. The form factor is nice, the screen is crisp and clear, and the extra horsepower compared to my generation one Amazon Kindle Fire is very, very noticeable.
