UK based site Trusted Places has entered the US market without any fanfare. This was being contemplated for some time but I just stumbled upon it through Google Maps.
This represents another potential competitor in the market, more like Yelp than YellowPages.com, for all to contend with.
Here’s my previous discussion of Trusted Places.

Thanks for the post Greg.
We did have reviews in the US for some time now (although NY has some listings data as well). Since our users can write about any place in the world we’ve had reviews in 45 countries so far.
We still have a huge amount of work to do in the UK and Europe where our focus is, but it’s great to see that some of our content is getting picked up in the US.

Right . . . knew about NY from our discussion. However, hadn’t seen anything else until now.
