The BarBook facebook application lets you find local venues and meet others that go to the same places as you.
Based on your location (which can be changed), BarBook will show places in your area and those that have added the particular venue to their list. You can add venues to your list too, and you'll become a regular. Places that you've added will be displayed on your BarBook profile within Facebook, as well as your Facebook profile wall. Each venue has a profile as well, where you can read and submit comments, and edit information about the venue (for example, upload an image). This allows you to meet others on Facebook, and find recommended places to go.
While there is a leaderboard for the most active BarBook members, there's no way to really rank the venues; you'll just have to know that the place with the most "regulars" must be the place to go. Looks like BarBook has started its venture in California and is relying on users to slowly build out from there. The team tells us they'll be incorporating information directly from Facebook event listings in the future, which will probably be a good tie in for additional content and sharing options within the social network.
