Cool site.

One nitpick: It looks like the automated scraper is bad at "de-duplicating" syndicated (or stolen?) content.

Example: http://www.tripexpert.com/saint-paul/hotels/le-meridien-cham...

Note the identical review text. That would immediately turn me off to the site as "obvious marketing spam" if it wasn't first posted here.

Pretty neat though, I can see how this would be useful in companion with some of the user generated review sites.
