Quote:Yelp is useful and great and all that, but, let's face it: It's kind of boring. Sure, the site's job is to give us useful information, but what if it were actually INTERESTING to read? Wouldn’t you be approximately one million percent more likely to use it? Enter 25-year-old actress Natalie Walker, reviewer extraordinaire.
Quote:Here's where the whole "entertainment" aspect comes in. Except instead of reviewing restaurants, bars, and tailors, Walker reviews the dates she went on at those locations. Like that time in 2008 she went to go see The Happening.
I thought what this woman did was hilarious. However, I can see both sides to an extent. At least one worker said how her/his performance review is affected by Yelp reviews that call her/him out by name. It seems like only a dunce couldn't weed out the bogus reviews, though.
