Trusted Opinion, a social recommendations network, now covers the entire globe with an international restaurant review service encompassing over 1.5 million reviewed restaurants, bars and cafes across Europe, Asia, and North America. Trusted Opinion is the widest-reaching service of its kind with support for 43 languages and over one million registered members from more than 100 countries.
Trusted Opinion offers users a compelling and entertaining way to get restaurant recommendations and reviews from their friends and expert sources with a sophisticated social layer. Users can link to their friends, share opinions, and earn “Respect Points” for helpful reviews. Unlike other review sites, Trusted Opinion creates personalized recommendations for each user based on the opinions of their immediate network.
“Food is one of the foundational ways in which we experience new cultures, countries, or regions. The U.S. market is well served by local review sites and we wanted to bring this experience to a broader global audience, while also making it fun and social”
In addition to providing reviews from Trusted Opinion's one million strong community members, the site also aggregates ratings from expert sources from around the world. By incorporating additional reviews from sources such as Citysearch, TripAdvisor, Gayot, MenuPages, and many others, Trusted Opinion has created a truly unique and extensive world-wide social database of user generated reviews.
Trusted Opinion makes it easy to share opinions with friends from any social network. Facebook Connect opens up the entire Facebook community to Trusted Opinion, while Hi5, Orkut, MySpace and other networks are also supported.
"Food is one of the foundational ways in which we experience new cultures, countries, or regions. The U.S. market is well served by local review sites and we wanted to bring this experience to a broader global audience, while also making it fun and social," said Todd Greene, COO of Trusted Opinion.
