FTC released guidelines for bloggers regarding endorsements, et al.
This blog is a personal blog, documenting my work on my assembled HTPC. I have purchased all the items listed in the blog and have received no freebies. I have provided the costs of the items I purchased. I have no affiliations with any of the software or hardware companies so I am not a mouthpiece of any of their advertising machinery.
I hope this blog is useful to you!
