Seriously, that was painful to read. I've used Yelp in NYC countless times. It's not that bad; you just have to filter through the reviews. It's like any social site.

Fair enough, you're right. I was just blown away that yelp would pass up half a billion dollars.

Sounds way too meta to me. You have to review the reviews to actually find a useful review? If the site is being abused and the reviews need to be filtered than it's effective usefulness goes way down.
