A company that I'm working on called Viewpointr, is actually trying to solve the question you asked -- Where are these peer recommendations? Often times, we want a viewpoint from a particular type of person regarding a website, restaurant, etc., but the information out there so far is not that well connected to us personally. Viewpointr is trying to solve the problem of getting insight from people outside of your network (which is often what you would like to hear from), by using your friends of friends, which is your trusted network. Good blog post. Glad that you've voiced the problem as it specifically relates to consumer review sites. Cheers, Andre Very interesting blog post.
