I think there should be Flickr integration with Yelp so that, if I take photos of a restaurant and upload them to Flickr, I can easily add them to a pool of images about a restaurant on Yelp. It can't be that hard, can it?
Can't sign up for Yelp under my zip code 90210. Yelp keeps saying "Yelp is overworked right now". I have tried every day. Does anyone know what's the problem? and they're promoting themselves in Rodeo Dr Beverly Hills events that I am invited. What an irony. I've also tried many days and with different zip codes to see if they work. I have left many feedbacks and even e-mailed their local LA e-mail address they display on their site, for fancy I guess. None have replied in a reasonable time. Guess, their business of reviews on other businesses is back on their own being "not so great". They proudly mislead by saying, "not signed up yet, we still love you"........Yeah, you're right.....Otherwise, all businesses have a better explanation on things rather than saying "Yelp is overworked right now". Maybe, they should say something that has truth in it. Whatever.....
Yelp canceled my account for posting that a few area restaurants server shark fin soup. I was posting an honest opinion and without any warning, my account was cancelled. Yelp claims "real reviews by real people" but they clearly are not interested in living-up to that if it offends the restaurants that are being reviewed?
It'd be nice to have a Yelp mini-feed just from my Yelp friends, much like the Facebook news feed. The news feed could include reviews, bookmarks (public) and conversations my Yelp friends are participating in.
