I'd like to invite any and all interested librarians to be a little bold and have a little fun by going to online "Answer" sites, such as:

* Yahoo Answers
* Amazon's Askville
* The WikiPedia Reference Desk

I need an iPhone replacement for Vindigo!

i have a pretty new iPhone. it's very exciting.

BUT. i need to find some way to organize my restaurant habits.

I need to be able to say, this is where i am, okay, what restaurants are near this corner? where's the nearest indian restaurant ... no, not that one, how about the next?
what restaurants have i noted in the last year, and what ones are nearby?

if it's a web app, i guess, usable in Safari, i don't have to hack it -- and i can edit from the computer OR iPhone, which is handier.

Google Maps on the iPhone lets me make my own notes, it's true - but it doesn't let me browse around and see what restaurants (or stores) are nearby. nor does it let me sort - korean restaurants in this neighborhood; it's just sorted by neighborhood.

Is there a good web resource for keeping track of your favorite restaurants? I've used vindigo for so many years that i don't even know; citysearch and its ilk isn't going to do it for me, that's for sure.

I'd like a combination of searchability and reviews and information.

The functionality of Vindigo -- of being able to tell it, "I'm on the corner of 8th and 18th, where's the nearest tapas place?" and seeing that there's two nearby that i've liked a lot.



Internets? help?

anyone?
