If I was looking for a reliable locksmith/plumber/flower delivery the first resource I would consult would be local friends/acquaintances I trust. Picking a random company from 50 yellow pages listings is crazy, and so -- currently -- is depending on Google to pick out the right one. Social seems to intuitively be the obvious direction to go.
(I don't know how social Groupon is. I stayed away so far because I have no interest in deals of the day.)

Reliable local service anecdote: I'm looking to rent a house, and after finding the first page of Google results for "rent house" to be spam, have restricted my search to Craigslist.
