Citysearch Joins Facebook(R) Connect

Citysearch Implements Facebook Connect to Help Users Discover Places Through
Their Network of Friends in Every US Zip Code

WEST HOLLYWOOD, Calif., July 23 /PRNewswire/ -- Citysearch today announced
that it has joined Facebook Connect to allow users to "connect" their Facebook
identity, friends and privacy to Citysearch.com.
Citysearch joined Facebook Connect in order to let users enjoy discovering
and sharing local content within the context of their real identity and
friendships on Facebook. With millions of Facebook users returning to the site
each day, businesses are provided with unparalleled social distribution and
the opportunity for an ongoing dialogue with their consumers.
"When people can connect with their friends and family online, they are
more compelled to contribute and share reviews on their favorite local
restaurant or bar with others," said Jay Herratti, CEO, Citysearch. "Now with
Facebook Connect, Citysearch will take its social initiatives to the next
level by eliminating the sign-up barrier and allowing for Citysearch users to
immediately connect and interact with their current Facebook network on
Citysearch.com."
Available later this year, Citysearch users will be able to review their
friend's recommendation by simply signing onto Citysearch.com with their
Facebook login. Whether those consumers are in the mood to find a new
restaurant for dinner or need to find a hair salon, they can simply click on a
Citysearch business profile page, review Citysearch content, along with their
Facebook friends' recommendations, and make an educated decision on where to
make a reservation or call for an appointment.
Facebook gives everyone the power to share and make the world more open
and connected. Facebook users communicate through the social graph, the
network of connections and relationships that exist in the world between
people. With more than 90 million active users, Facebook is the fourth-most
trafficked website in the world. Facebook launched Facebook Connect to allow
users to take their identity and friends with them around the Web, while being
able to trust their information is always up to date and always protected by
