Personalgrapevine.com was built with the intention to create a platform wherein users can grow a unique, personalized network of trusted friends and acquaintances in order to share opinions and referrals for everyday services. There are other review sites out there, but we feel they missed the mark. How are we supposed to know if a complete stranger shares the same tastes and opinions as we do. I want to read reviews from people I know and trust, and who I know I share the same tastes and opinions of. RocketHub is not an investment or charity. It is an exchange: funds from fans for rewards from me.
