Why Gorb Is Shit (Personal Opinion)

March 13th, 2007 by Administrator

I speak for myself on this one, but Gorb is shit.

The idea to create a way for people to rate each other on such a large scale is a great one, really. However, it should be done in a way other than anonymous ratings.

For one, what if someone comes home drunk and starts randomly rating people. This would make for an inaccurate rating. What if there is a jokester that makes it his sole mission in life to rate everyone poorly. The problem is no one takes this seriously because there is no reason to take it seriously.

Enter my idea…

It has probably been done before, but what if people were rated using their …

1) OpenID

2) Ebay Rating

3) # of recommendations on LinkedIn

4) and any other rating system provided by established social networks offering incentives to rate a person properly and for the person receiving the rating to act accordingly.

An algorithm could be created giving weight to certain data. With this data a universal rating system could begin to change the world.

There you go Gorb, a million-dollar-idea for free. Remember me when you taste success. (Hint- I like Ruth’s Chris).
