Lou MC Yelps a Lot

I tried to like this Local Guide Houston on Google+ Community. It has over 19k members with too many spam messages and unrelated topics. The worse part was my question on meetup was unanswered. Everyone seems disinterested with everyone else. I felt like it's a bot world. So I tried localguideconnect.com, a little better but still many unrelated replies. It seems people just want to get badges. I sent a message and never had high hope for a response back. But it has to depend on how they receive notification. For me, I receive updates on gmail.

While Yelp app has not developed a search function for "Cash Back", I saved some links for you and me to use while on the go: Houston Cash Back Sugar Land Cash Back Dallas Cash Back San Antonio Cash Back Austin Cash Bac...

Do you have issues with GPS location of a biz? I have an example of this dilemma. I stayed in Hyatt Regency Houston last June. Google Map said I was at the correct address on WiFi. But when I asked for direction to my destination, it told me my current location was 2 miles away in Buffalo Bayou. Not sure if the satellite signal was weak in this crowded downtown buildings. GPS discrepancy  I have confirmed with a technical person at Yelp. It uses Google Map to support the map portion. If Google Map says go right, Yelp app will tell you to go right.

I have a few Yelpers asked me how to link their Facebook friends to a Yelp account. I remember I set this up once long time ago. Try these steps: Go to a computer and log in to www.yelp.com Go to the upper right side of page and look for your avatar. Click on the vertical bar next to your photo on the upper-right side. Select Account Settings and you may need to login again. Click on  External Applications link. This is the only way to manage settings for Facebook and Twitter.
