Yelp
Who it's for: People who read reviews, don't trust guidebooks, and have opinions.
What we like: Yelp's conceit is the review -- users write about their local haunts, from bars and boutiques to laundromats and grocery stores. Their assessments then become part of Yelp's arsenal so other browsers can access them and learn about spots to check out or avoid. Members can add friends whose opinions they trust, learn about their faves, and chat with each other. Yelp also features popular events by week and allows users to see who plans to attend them. Like a personalized 'Not For Tourists' guide to everything, Yelp has often steered us to the right places in our home town and beyond. If you have an iPhone, be sure to download the free location-based app that uses the handset's GPS to literally tell you what's cool around you.

Cmon. you kidding. You say you are sick of Facebook then you give a slew of other sites to go and do basically the same type thing. Talk about the internet becoming the priority in many peoples' lives,,, egads. Time to step back and realize how much of your life you are wasting on the web!!

Kind of annoying to have to click through 21 separate page loads with 1 paragraph of text on each. This article could've been 1-3 pages and I might have finished it.
