I found a site where you can rate anything and everything that you can think of.

All you do is sign up and then pick a category, if its not there add it.

Then you can clik to vote on anything that is already there, or add something. They personally make sure that nothing is added that shouldnt be in that category or in the group that it was submitted to.

What is really interesting about this site is that every thing can have attributes that are rated as well. Which means that if you have a car, you can rate the seats, seatbelts, windows, steering wheel, floor mats, or whatever.

Every attribute that is rated, goes towards the item’s overall rating, and the ones that have note been rated yet, dont. So the results are only based on user input.

They make things really easy, and you can rate things without having to submit any forms! Just go down the list and rate as you go.
