Wakoopa - The Application based Social Network
Wakoopa is the perfect place for people to discover software and web apps online. It is a very specialized social network revolving around the desktop software used by its members. Through a downloadable tracking application for your PC or Mac every software application you use and how long you use it, is recorded and gathered by Wakoopa’s servers.
Your personal profile will display all of your software related data and will update automatically with any news, updates or reviews on each specific application. Small forums are created around individual applications and similar applications are listed below a tag cloud.
The Wakoopa service has a small application that runs in the background on a user’s computer. The application gathers the information about open software and games, and then publishes the information to their profile on Wakoopa’s web site.
If you still don’t know what anti-virus program to use, what games to play or which only community your friends use, then just look in their database .They know what the cool kids use! Browse by tag or category, it’s all there.
Wakoopa also allows you to share your software usage and your opinions about software. Recently they have also started a widgets section through which you can share your usage with your friends on popular social networking sites such as Facebook, My Space, Live Spaces, Orkut, and more in the form of Badges, Signatures and Cards.

Yelp - Real Reviews By Real People
Yelp is the fun and easy way to find, review and talk about whats great and not so great in your world. You already know that asking friends is the best way to find restaurants, dentists, hairstylists, and anything local. Yelp makes it fast and easy by collecting and organizing your friends recommendations in one convenient place.
Yelp is a local reviews website covering almost 40 states. Users write and read reviews about anything from their favorite wall restaurant to the worst downtown club. Additionally Yelp offers social networking features: the ability to add friends, groups, events, talk in forums or message contacts. The idea behind this is that users will trust their friend’s reviews more than others.
Yelp provides online local search capabilities for its visitors. A typical search includes what the user is seeking and the location from which the search is to be performed, entered as a specific address, neighborhood, city state combination, or zip code. Each business listing result contains a 5 point rating, reviews from other site visitors, and details such as the business address, hours, accessibility, and parking.
Strong peer feedback mechanisms and the featured placement of popular reviews on the site and in local newsletters help motivate contributors. Yelp also applies a “First to Review” reward system to create a competition among contributing members, further motivating the creation of reviews and adding to the site’s business coverage. Over 10.6 million people access the Yelp web site each month, putting it in the top 100 of U.S. Internet web sites.
