I really hope this can be turned around and made into a success, because the web needs a good reputation system.
I admire your optimism. I had some email convos with Mark Pfennig during the period of time when he was researching for Bitmark (and on a different occasion with insanitycoin because of his interest in the blockchain-cum-RDF). We had a go at discussing the issues in a reputation system but I found that his naive and uninformed model rendered the attempt futile.
Question is: what makes you feel that someone who has demonstrated such questionable social judgement is capable of designing and building an effective reputation system?
Cheers
Graham
P.S. I owe you an email, I'm working on it
