You throw around high report numbers, but most listed locations have one report.

I would probably like it to receive a warning about a recent report a place has while I'm there.

How about user verification, perhaps even with a verified doctor visit getting a higher trustworthiness rating?

I would consider DineSafe to be a nicer, more memorable, internationally better-faring name than iwaspoisoned.

We roll data off the site after 30 days, so you are only looking at recent history, and also not every report goes live on the site. I think the largest we had reported in this period are maybe a couple of cases citing between 20 and 40 people sick.

Thanks for the sentiment re Dinesafe. Iwaspoisoned.com is not for everyone, but it does fare well on search and being memorable.
