Dear Robin,
Reputation "metrics" and online trust mechanisms are a complex matter. As
you point out, social distance and governance are part of it too. To
concentrate on the first issue, I would suggest you a few links for you to
explore further:
Books:
- Jennifer Goldbeck, Computing with Social Trust
http://www.springer.com/computer/hci/book/978-1-84800-355-2
- Randall Farmer
http://www.amazon.com/Building-Reputation-Systems-Randy-Farmer/dp/059615979X
Blogs:
Eli Gothill's Webisteme and especially:
- Reputation currencies and hybrid economies
http://www.webisteme.com/blog/?p=1064
and some posts of my own on currencies/reputation/trust mechanisms:
- on http://tech.the-hub.net/
- and a video related to the subject
http://www.scoop.it/t/the-p2p-daily/p/1598025976/reputation-currencies-hubnet-mp4
Hope you find it useful!
