Yikes!  Where has the time gone?  It is time to back to some serious review writing.  Can you believe that Spring is almost here?  Opening Day is right around the corner!!!

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! I hope you had a great time with your family.  I have a bunch of reviews to write now that the weekend is almost over.

Top Ten Most Commented on Reviews of all time on Viewpoints

I am a big fan of stats.  I love watching how people interact with each other on Viewpoints.  In fact we are thinking about creating a page that will allow anyone on the site to see what the most commented on and most helpful reviews are across the site during different different time periods.  So... I had Leon pull these stats.  What do you think?  Would you like to see more?  Leave me a comment on my profile and let me know.

I set up lots of business lunches and I am always looking for a way to give people choices about where they want to go.  So today, I tagged all my restaurant reviews that are close to our office with a specific tag called "River North Business Luncher".  Then I went into the private view of my reviews and filtered the reviews for that tag.  It is a way to give someone a very specific list of recommended places. Try it out and let me know what you think.
