METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR PRESENTING INFORMATION IN A DISTRIBUTED COMPUTING ENVIRONMENT

摘要

Disclosed is an inventive method for organizing content from a common pool of content data based on a users level of trust for authors of the content data. The method includes maintaining a common pool database of content, with each piece of content having an author. In addition, a user database is maintained which includes user trust data. The user trust data includes user trust levels for the authors of content in the common pool database. Finally, a new content database and content presentation structure are generated based on the user trust data of the user. Advantageously, content can be structured to more particularly suit the interest of an individual user.
