Our opinion

I listened to a lot of flattering official reviews, which crumble in praise and are very similar to a massive advertising campaign.
The product is good and even very good. Perhaps the best thing they did in Internet. But only now this is already there. What I do not find on Google, there is on Yandex. What I do not find on Yandex, there is on Google. What for still something. Very similar to the principle of Mail.ru - just earning money.
