Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the field of social computing and more particularly to a method of implementing a quantification of the qualitative and quantitative aspects of a user in a social computing based environment.
  • Social networking sites that provide services that focus on one or more particular aspects of human life and build their entire site and associated features, user interface, etc. based on the focused aspect.
  • the most popular aspects of providing a social networking service revolve around sites that are focused on general human interaction, dating, professional and job specific, matrimony, games, music, movies, books, environment, technology and so on.

  • a major problem with this kind of rating is that it is solely user based, i.e., the ratings of a user being shown in a user's profile are merely based on the ratings conferred to him by other users. This leaves out a lot of aspects from the rating process with respect to the activities of a user and activities associated with said user. This is not desirable especially in a social networking site focused on jobs and professional networks. For example, a user is rated by his employer, past employers, colleagues, clients, etc. who happen to be other users.
