Default Adding review capabilities to a website?

I have a new idea for a website, and I'd like to be able to have readers review products and services. Does anyone know of good tools to add this capability to a website? I can see scripts and stuff when I google, but would love any personal recommendations for something you've used successfully.

Thanks!

If you are using WordPress You could selectively list desired people from subscriber to contributor and they can post reviews. How much access do you want to grand people who come to your blog and write reviews? You could also ask for email submissions which would give you more control over what is seen on your blog.

Thanks Gene. I'm probably going to use Squarespace to build my site. I like the idea of doing email submissions, or it also occurs to me that I could set up my items as blog entries and do moderated comments which would be faster to admin. I suppose if the site grew so busy that it became a problem, I could look at migrating it to something more highly scalable in the future. I'm worried about making it totally freeform lest it be abused or spammed.
