Yelp
August 21st, 2006Yelp is a website where users rate and write reviews about local businesses and services. It also serves as a local guide. I’ve come across it every now and then over the last year and a half, but never really got into it until about two months ago. I was looking online for a local and reliable auto shop to take my wife’s car to. Somehow I ended up on Yelp. I looked up a few shops, read the reviews, and decided on one. We took the car to the shop we had read about. The service we received was just as we had read on Yelp - all positive.
I’ve since started using Yelp to review restaurants and other services. I also started to write reviews about restaurant I’ve been to. You can read my reviews at http://juandelreal.yelp.com
