#14 - Best of Web 2.0

I decided to explore yelp for this exercise.

Yelp is a site that allows users to post reviews of local businesses, and rate the service and the experience.

I really enjoy playing around on Yelp and I've written quite a few reviews there.

I think this could be a very useful tool, especially if it were more widely known, and maybe if it were integrated into a local website, such as mlive.com where the reviews pertaining to a certain locality would be readily available to users in that area.

I could see this being handy not only in a local website type venue, but I could see it being useful in a library setting to help direct patrons to "what's hot and what's not".

Here are some of my yelps:
