FOR YELP! Yep, I am usually a hard sell to jump on any band wagon, but I am so glad that I did on this one. Yelp.com is this community, where you come together and review places that you have been; businesses, restaurants, doctors, auto repair places… anywhere! You give your honest, candid opinion of how you actually feel about a place, give it a rating, and poof! people can see what you think, and your voice and opinion are heard.
I especially love that I get to review and give my opinion about local hang outs, bars, restaurants and stuff like that; because I know, that when I go somewhere awesome, I want to share it, but there isn’t always a great way to give your opinion to lots of people. Now, with yelp, you can! Also, I know what it is like when you go to visit a city, you want to know what you can do, and where the best place to go and do what you want is, and yelp is the answer! Want to know the cool gay places to go? Now, I can find out and share that info with you, through this community! Now, I will get to see what other people think about places, and I will even be able to use that information about my own city! Who knows, I may even try something knew!!! Thanks for turning me on to yelp, Lori! Now, all of you join up, and be my friend on yelp, so we can start sharing opinions and ideas about stuff! YEAH!
You will notice there is a new 80×15 button on the right that will take you to my yelp page. Check it out!
Kudzu.com is pretty much the same setup as Yelp. Just FYI.
I don’t think I’ve ever seen you use quite so many exclamation points in one post.
Go Team Yelp!
Yelp is the straight up bomb-diggity…
While I would a agree that Kudzu is similar, it is in no way ‘the same setup as Yelp’. Yelp is the Flickr of online opinion sharing.
When Flickr came around, there were many, many, many online photo sharing sites. But the all, at worst sucked, and at best were barely adequate. What Flickr did was implement photo sharing right. They did introduce anything that hadn’t been done before, they just did it better than anybody else had.
Yelp is doing the same thing for opinion sharing.
Thanks! I’ll check it. Is there a place where I can TELL PEOPLE what I REALLY THINK about your blog?! What? Oh yeah, it’s all GOOD
YAY!!! I love praise… keep it coming! =o)
epinions.com is somewhat the same - though you can actually earn real money from your reviews. I’ve been there for years and I’m making a couple of hundred dollars every few months.
