YellowBot.com

November 6, 2007

I’ve never really been a fan of business directory listing types of websites; they tend to seem poorly designed, and I’m never sure about trusting the reviews. YellowBot.com has my interest for the moment, though, with its nice, clean interface and handy google maps. You have to register (it’s free) to write reviews or recommendations, but you can use the service to find a business and read reviews without doing anything special. YellowBot’s thing is that it’s a “local” search site — I’m not entirely sure how that makes it different from other business directories. In true Web 2.0 style, it also supports tags for each business. Give it a try!
