Family reunion made easy!

Advantages: Got me from A to B as easy as 1,2,3
Disadvantages: If you find one then please tell me!

...I asked my trusted friend multimap.com to help and it delivered once more. It not only helped find where I had to go, but also pointed out a convienent shopping mall right next to my uncles. So while on route I picked up a couple of pressies, knocked on the front door of my uncles and gave them a really pleasant surprise. Brownine points for the pressies and bonus points in being able to find them without their help. If you're ever stuck and a little ...

YELL.COM a disguised SCAM.COM

Advantages: None
Disadvantages: Rip off, scam, promises just to get the sale done.

...a Mr. Gary Carrol from yell.com asking if I would be interested in having a advert on Yell website. As I was just starting, I said that as I was not sure if the business would work, and that at that stage I would prefer not to have the advert. Mr. Gary said then, that I would have a 6 weeks free trial to check if the advert would get me some costumers, and, if I was happy after this trial period then yell would get paid the advert for the period ...
...pay for something that was suposed to be a free trial period. Bottom line, if you are offered something free from YELL.COM do not believe it as its not true, it will be a trick to get you to agree for something that you will have to pay for. ...

friendsreunited.co.uk a worse version of facebook.

Advantages: Great site, free to join, easy to use.
Disadvantages: None

friendsreunited.co.uk is an online website which allows you to be reunited with friends that you may have lost touch with. This can include people you went to school, college, university with or people that you have worked with but since lost touch with. The site is very simple and easy to use. It's well laid out, you simply visit the website and then you can create your account and add information about yourself by building a profile. This can include ...
...If somebody contacted you on friendsreunited.co.uk in the past you may have had to sign up to one of their subscriptions in order to be able to see the message that they sent to you and to swap e-mail addresses etc. I found this to be quite expensive and I did once join up at around £8.00 for a year just so I could read a couple of messages from an old teacher of mine (I did feel that it was worth it). However, the site has more of a facebook feel ...

Scoot are the devil incarnate.

Advantages: Absolutely none.
Disadvantages: Zero results, unethical sales techniques, site is dated (1990's style)

I am a customer (read: hostage) of Scoot advertising services. Firstly, I would like to agree with another reviewer who experienced underhanded sales techniques. I was conned into believing Scoot would provide significant results, that many potential customers would visit my page on Scoot and either email me or visit my website as a result. I have been paying £70 a month (6 payments over 6 months paying for 12 months subscription) for 5 months and ...
...the Scoot site (I can verify this by looking in my server logs/stats). I created a new email address to track the Scoot emails and I have yet to receive a single email. If you're considering a premium listing on Scoot, think again! They are the worst company I have ever had the displeasure of dealing with. ...

Now thats RIGHT UP MY STREET

Advantages: Superbly Informative web site
Disadvantages: None...OK It could be a bit more attractive.

Of all the sites on the Internet, I reckon “UpMyStreet.co.uk” has got to go down as one of the most useful, I mean come on! What site gives you as much useful information as here, it’s absolutely superb. What is “UpMyStreet.co.uk”? Well, basically, it’s a web site that gives you that useful information needed regarding your hometown or one that you are visiting. Are you feeling hungry, and want to know where ...
...a certain make of Car, but don’t know where to look? Do you want to know the local Crime-rates? And what is being done about them? Well, look no further my friends, as this site has the lot. When you first visit this page, it will look very plain and ordinary, just a portal thingy, which requires you to input you Postal Code, once this is done, you’ll be transferred to the main page, the page that tells you everything and anything about ...
