Yelp Gives Local Flavor Mobile Access To Reviews

If you’re not familiar with Yelp.com, we suggest a quick glance at their About page [Warning - PC Link].  It’s a pretty cool idea that basically allows patrons to rate and review the offerings of their local businesses.  While the mobile site is limited to review searches from your phone, the site itself has spurred somewhat of a cult-like following.  Outside of the larger city-base that is listed on the site, reviews can be few and far between, which ends up really just being a glorified local search.  Added functionality to the mobile site would undoubtedly help to increase reviews, simply because most of us still do not drag our laptops to dinner or the salon.  Just saying.

Of course, there is always a disclaimer in the fact that not everyone is meant to be a critic, and YMMV.
