Want to go anywhere, like, ever? You need to download the Yelp app. It gives you crowdsourced reviews about every local place from restaurants and bars to doctors and spas. The reviews are real - people can't pay Yelp to take down reviews, and lots of times the reviews are entertaining.
Plus there are some fun features on Yelp if you decide to sign up to create an account and write your own reviews too! Get badges, find friends and tell people if you thought their reviews were helpful or not.
