Where did Yelp get its name?

Sharon - This one's tricky because you're asking "Where?" According to this Newsweek article, Yelp got its name from either a guy in their incubator room or from a domain name squatter, depending on how you look at it.

Geppetto - The name "Yelp" comes from a friend of the founders who simply liked the word. Here's a great article on the two guys in San Francisco who founded Yelp.


Which Ignite Phoenix # 5 presenter dedicated the presentation to his/her grandmother?

Sharon - Alison Bawor's talk was dedicated to her grandmother because she was constantly helping her use the bathroom.


The Smelly Dog is Green with Envy, but sure looks Hawt!
What does this have to do with Yelp Phoenix and Nov 8th?

Sharon - Green With Envy Organic Hair Studio is Hawt on Yelp starting November 8th (among quite a few other salons/spas).


Way to go, Sharon!
