RSS FeedDoes Yelp Do The PQ Justice?
<Yelp article in NYT begged the question, how does Yelp treat the PQ and its businesses>
<spread of reviews: 540 spots – 32 have 10 or more review>

<one reviewer reviewed Pepco with an average of 1.5 stars…how many people are going to rave about the power company – any power company, no reviews of the DOJ or DC Government, AARP got one star because a 20 something received an offer in the mail…fair? you be the judge. maybe businesses should get an opportunity to provide an official statement for each Yelp review.>
<Juan Valdez – no note that it is closed (did get 4.5 stars though)>
<9 got 4.5 stars including the Potbelly’s on Indiana Avenue. we like Potbelly’s here at PQ Living so were good with that>
<conclusion: for reviews that have many contributors, you’ll probably get a fairly balanced opinion that approximates reality. other results are inconsistent. reflection of true/average public opinion. we’re not so sure?>
