Gordon Brown says Tripadvisor is a beacon of change to us all

Or that's the phrase Barack Obama's speech writers would probably use!


Anyway, you know you're hit the mainstream when UK government officials single out your business as a good example of how consumer behaviour is changing and that they are considering a similar service.


[The Curse of Political Recognition is a fickle beast, so beware Mr Kaufer!]


And so we find Tripadvisor named, according to a BBC report, by the government as a lead for a new service which will allow the public to rate NHS facilities, police services and local councils.


The scheme (given one of those awful public body-type names of which management consultants are so fond) is called Working Together and is part of a wider project to democratise "the power of information" in local services.


EEK!


One shudders at what might come next - meta search for hospitals?


Step forward Mr Hafner, no doubt.
