I got this message from Facebook today…
Eight friends have rated your trustworthiness:
* You scored 4.5 out of 5 (Highly Trusted).
* Your political power index is 36 (SOMEBODY).
Gee ….. so does that mean …. I’m somebody?
I tried to find out who thought I was so highly trustable - but the application doesn’t tell me and just tries to get me to install other applications that also don’t tell me what I really want to know ….
Why bother telling me that I’m Trustworthy if I can’t find out who thinks that - you’d think with Social Media there’d also be a good dose of transparency … but not here.
I see this as another example of tricking people into installing more stuff than they need that doesn’t help them - it’s the antithesis of real social media, real transparancy.
