Hello! I am doing a little surprise night post because I wanted to introduce you to a great website I recently discovered that I think you all would be very interested in. AroundMe.com is a site where a community of friends can offer up their personal recommendations, experiences, viewpoints, and reviews to help other users make informed decisions about day-to-day stuff like hiring a plumber, choosing a restaurant or finding a new doctor.

You can go to the site and type in the city you would like to find information for. I typed in Queens and right away the site showed me the most popular coffee shops, restaurants, spa and salons, and more. There are user reviews and descriptions about each place in that city. There are also “how to” guides, city guides, maps, and even current weather conditions.

The unique aspect about AroundMe.com is its integration with Facebook. By using Facebook Connect, you can see what local restaurants and other businesses your friends have reviewed. I know as soon as one of my friends has tried a new restaurant in the city, I want to know how it was right away! This would be an easy way to learn about the quality of food, customer service, environment, and anything else you are curious about.

I know we all love sharing our opinions with each other, especially when it comes to food, so AroundMe.com seemed like a great website to introduce to everyone! Take a look around and discover new doctors, restaurants, dry cleaners, and more! Let me know what you think! Any feedback is greatly appreciated!

I am off to go finish my wine! Have a good night!
