I used to like yelp, but I'm not sure I really place trust in their reviews anymore. They play games with their content (and not fun, good kinds of games). They allow companies being reviewed to comment on their reviews, denigrating the opinions of their customers, and they let companies pay to determine what order the reviews get listed.
Can anybody say "sleazy"??
Sure thing! I knew you could!
A review site that puts controls into the hands of the merchants is not to be trusted for impartiality. A review site that makes merchant comments more prominent than fair criticisms from legitimate clients should NOT be trusted.
I don't trust yelp anymore.
You shouldn't either.
