+ | What do Amazon’s product reviews, eBay’s feedback score system, Slashdot’s Karma System, and Xbox Live’s Achievements have in common? They’re all examples of successful reputation systems that enable consumer websites to manage and present user contributions effectively. With this book, you’ll learn how a reputation system can enhance your business, and what it takes to design and develop one of your own. | ||
+ | </p><p> | ||
+ | If you’re building, operating, or participating in a website or online application, Building Web Reputation Systems will help you discover why these underlying mechanisms are critical for any organization that draws on—or plans to include—user-generated content.</td> | ||

- | We're proud to announce that the draft for [[chapter4]] is now available for review! Things are starting to gel for us as a writing team, and we're very happy with the direction that the content is taking (though—as ever!—we still crave and appreciate your input.) | + | <blockquote> |
+ | “I like the scope of the book. It provides a lot of new material about a field that is struggling to leap from black art to science, and it provides a lot of useful anecdotal evidence to illustrate the counter-intuitive traps.” | ||
- | [[chapter4]] continues to build on the visual grammar first outlined in [[chapter2]] and attempts to describe some of the data primitives & typical processes that we'll be using to build more- and more-complex models & systems. | + | --Douglas Crockford, Senior JavaScript Architect at Yahoo!</blockquote> |
- | Bryce & Randy | + | About the authors: |

- | The Chapter 6 draft is finally up: [[chapter6]] - there's a new taxonomy describing the various forms of user contributions that might be interesting to take a look at, as well as a mapping of user incentives for contributions. Very crunchy stuff. | + | Basic understanding of application logic is recommended, along with experience in creating web content. |

- | The first draft of Chapter 2 - [[chapter2]] is now available for review and it's all about our reputation graphical grammar - the linchpin of the book and probably the most important work we're doing. Please take a look and leave feedback. | + | * [[Chapter 4]] |

- | This wiki is a companion for the upcoming Yahoo!Press/O'Reilly Media book: //Building Web 2.0 Reputation Systems// written by F. Randall "Randy" Farmer and Bryce Glass. | + | * [[Chapter 10]] |
- | + | * [[Appendix A]] | |
- | [[chapter1|Reputations Systems]] are becoming increasingly critical to the web in general as people and businesses need to sort through the unprecedented volumes of user generated content produced globally every second of every day. We thought it needed a book to help establish a grammar for thinking about and designing these crucial systems. To date, this topic hasn't been covered in book form, with bits and pieces all spread around, mostly as corporate anecdotes or academic research papers. | + | * [[Appendix B]] |
- | + | ||
- | Since this is an attempt to build a //new// shared model for describing reputation systems, it seems logical that this book should be written in the //[[http://communicationnation.blogspot.com/2008/08/unbook.html|un-book]]// style - with the text available for peer scrutiny and feedback incrementally, as it is written. | + | |

This way you won't need an account to participate and we'll be able to keep the conversion process under control. | + | |
