Yes, been doing lots of product research lately and they're becoming 
quite common.

I don't like them, but it's hard for me to separate dislike for the 
format from disdain for the content, which I doubt would be a problem 
here. Most of them are lots of marketing speak... "maximize", 
"increase", "centralize", "collaborate", blah blah blah... and when you 
hit the "Sign Up Now!!!" button, you know no more about their product 
than when you started...

Again, I'm sure that's not going to be a problem, since your goal is 
actually to educate and edify about the product!!!

To summarize, for me "content is king", which I think is objectively 
defensible. As for the long running or not, I prefer not, but that's 
clearly just a personal preference.

Thanks for all the hard work, and to those others who have generously 
offered their content and assistance...
