The directory,&nbsp;similar to a phone book,&nbsp;catalogues businesses and provides one place for people to compare their options. The recommendations engine gives people access to opinions about those businesses from people they trust, so they can make educated decisions about where to go, what to buy and when to shop. The key aspect of wommp is that it filters content - people only see information from people they choose, solving the huge problem of information overload in the market. wommp also gives businesses the chance to interact with their customers. For instance, businesses can send the latest updates, such as a 4 hour sale, to their customers via email/SMS. Businesses also benefit from a mini-website (think of a page in an online&nbsp;a phone book but with everything youth need related to that business), as well as weekly customer feedback reports and online gift certificate programs. The goal of wommp is to provide the right information to the right people at the right time - it is the ultimate word of mouth marketing project.</span></span></span></p>
