Hi,

And welcome to the Blog for Tim and Brendan's Studio 6 Project. We have decided to work together on this one again, due to the scale of the project we are intending to undertake.

As a background, our project is intended to be a website portal, designed to allow those visiting to rate their encounters with businesses in the real world. These ratings are then used to determine which are good, average and bad businesses, to allow other visitors using the site to decide on which businesses they want to use, emulating the "word of mouth" culture of the real world.

Through looking around, Tim has managed to find one example of a similar project currently on the net: http://www.welovelocal.com . This portal is set up for the london community, and utilises some of the functions we'd like to include, but many we'd rather wouldn't.

More to follow...
