Hello!

BIG NEWS – after months of hard work and late nights, Lunch is now fully open to the public! I'm really proud to be working with such a dedicated team. They have done such an amazing job building Lunch and you are only seeing half of it right now. Just wait as we roll out the rest. Our goal has always been to provide the best way to express your opinion online and help you get to the most relevant content -- and we're making that happen with every improvement. Opening our doors to the public means you'll have a much bigger audience (everyone online!) to enjoy your reviews. Post reviews on your favorite networks (Facebook, Myspace, Digg) by clicking on the "Share" icon in the upper left corner of every review. Or tweet the shortened review link with our handy Tiny Lunch URL Tool.

Our other major news is that your Lunch reviews can now be published to Facebook! Using Facebook Connect you can publish your Lunch reviews to your FB wall and news feed. How cool is that? The more people you have reading and rating your reviews, the more refined your Similarity Network becomes-- and the better we can connect you to the right people and information. Don't forget to become a fan of Lunch on Facebook too!

Stay in the Lunch loop by following us on Twitter @Lunch_com for news and updates and @bestoflunch for the cream of the review crop, or you can just follow me @jrlunch. We'd love to hear what you think via feedback, email, or Twitter!

Thanks again for joining and for being a part of our growing community.

Take care,

J.R. Johnson

Founder, Lunch
