Crowdsourced reviews and directory service Yelp has made its long-expected debut in Australia, launching sites for Sydney and Melbourne that collect together reviews of restaurants, shops, hotels and, in the words of Yelp CEO Jeremy Stoppelman, “anywhere that has an address”.
Because there are probably more than five web companies left that haven’t been eyed for acquisition, Google is reportedly in talks to acquire Yelp, the review site that has a big web and mobile presence in North America and the UK.
