The push towards openness continues. Local reviews site Yelp tell us they rolled out an API today, allowing you to mix and mash Yelp's data.

Functions include the ability to retrieve reviews and ratings, display review info, track reviews for a certain business, display images of high-rated local businesses and look up business ratings using the business' phone number, among other things. Examples include a map-based search for sushi restaurant reviews embedded on your site.
