Yelp Me!

I came across Yelp a while ago when I was going on a trip and wanted a list of places to eat. Since then it's become my favorite site for travel research. Just for fun, I tested it today by accessing the Yelp Portland, Oregon pages, since I know the city pretty well. All of my favorite places showed up and I found that I agreed with most of the reviews. It works best for popular destinations, of course, because the usefulness is dependent on how many people contribute reviews and how recently reviews have been submitted. So, on that basis, I guess Lincoln is not a hot travel spot, as many of the entries had only one review. Anyway, I agree with the Web 2.0 award for this little gem.
