My company got signed up for the Betterworks perks program a few months back. Betterworks pays employees of their customers (my employer in this case) $50 a month to spend on food takeout, messages, car washes, and other fun activities. However, I was having a hard time finding figuring out the quality of the service from their listings, so I would search for reviews on Yelp. While that was easy enough on its own, I found a script that added a Yelp review search link to Restaurant.com and thought to myself, why not use this for Betterworks? So I modded the script for my own use, and now I have one button search Yelp for business reviews from Betterworks. Kind of neat. Install with Greasemonkey for Firefox and then click on the script link; Chrome users need Tampermonkey (Update: Tampermonkey is no longer needed thanks to code from Erik Vold). Source code is on Github.
That’s pretty darn cool!
Thanks man. I like to think small enhancements can make some big difference to websites.
Is it really betterworks giving you 50 dollars to spend or is it your employer? Cool feature though!
Betterworks, but my employer pays them to provide us the $50. See the pricing page: http://www.betterworks.com/pricing
