Eager to jump headlong into the glorious bounty that is Chicago's food culture, I was looking for local reviews and suggestions from real people when I ran across Yelp on a web 2.0-related blog.

Yelp's tagline is: Real People. Real Reviews. This is very much what you get here. Reviews of all types of local items of interest including, restaurants, nightlife, salons, shopping, services and more are served up by an active social networking community in a very nicely done web-2.0-ish package. Look for ratings of reviews, endorsements of reviewers, personal tidbits, messaging - it really is a virtual community.

This site is so nice and covers the restaurant scene so well that I'm going to have to find something else to blog about.

And, oh yes, if you're interested: here's a link to my profile on Yelp.
