I joined yelp.com back in 2006 and to be honest, just joined. I didn’t do much, which is kind of lame in hindsight. However, I have rediscovered Yelp and have been “yelping” a lot in DC now since I arrived. I have become mildly addicted to it, and would totally yelp more if my job didn’t keep me so busy.
Yelp is reviews by users for users. The concept is simple and the value is that you can sort of tell that these are REAL people. Not like some review sites, where you get the feeling they are employees of the company. Here you can see other reviews they have written and make up your mind for yourself. Do yourself a favor, check it out see what you think, take it for a spin, and try not to get addicted.
I suspect like most things, my interest could fade over time. But for right now, I am enjoying yelping.
