Reviews of available inks

I think it is rather handy to easily find reviews of inks available. Here are links to reviews on FPN, as well as various blogs etc. I've chosen the reviews with respect to quality of review and colour reproduction.

I've also written a guide to ink properties.

Mind, that colours may vary from screen to screen.
