So the most surprising thing about Peeple — basically Yelp, but for humans — may be the fact that no one has yet had the gall to launch something like it.

When the app does launch, probably in late November, you will be able to assign reviews and one- to five-star ratings to everyone you know: your exes, your co-workers, the old guy who lives next door. You can’t opt out — once someone puts your name in the Peeple system, it’s there unless you violate the site’s terms of service. And you can’t delete bad or biased reviews — that would defeat the whole purpose.

This won't end in a lawsuit or defamation at all.

(Wonders hopefully to himself):
In the assessment algorithm is penis size a contributing factor?

I'm sure that people will only get constructive feedback that they can use to better their lives and overall appearance.

Harassment and potential for libel. This is a pretty horrible idea.

The only way something like this would work is if a company like Linked In allowed for personal reviews of people.

I liked the idea better when it was called "hot or not". And it was 1999.
