Abstract: A modification method and system. The method includes presenting by a computing system to a requester, templates associated with a candidate request. The computing system receives from the requester, first data associated with the candidate request. The computing system generates a request document comprising the first data. The computing system transmits the request document to at least one supplier. The computing system receives from the at least one supplier, a list of candidates. The computing system receives from the requester, a request for modifying the request document. The computing system generates in response to the request for modifying the request document, a modified request document comprising a modified version of the request document. The computing system receives from the requester, approval data approving a transmission of the modified request document.

Abstract: A validation system validates the detection of spam based entities in social networking contexts. Suspected spam based social networking entities are detected in a social networking site. A virtual social networking group is created that emulates a plurality of user profiles on the social networking site, including a user profile comprising a suspected spam based entity. A link in an emulated suspected spam based entity in the created virtual social networking group is invoked, resulting traffic is emulated, and the results are monitored. Responsive to the monitored results, it is determined whether to validate the suspected spam based entity. A validation indication specifying at least whether the suspected spam based entity has been validated can be stored for future reference, and/or transmitted to, e.g., the social networking site or a centralized security service.

Abstract: An embodiment provides a computer implemented method for social profile assessment. The computer implemented method receives a request from a first user for an assessment, and sends questionnaires to a set of assessors for the first user. Upon receiving questionnaires from the set of assessors to form completed questionnaires, the computer implemented method generates an unadjusted social style assessment for the first user. Upon receiving a request from a second user for the social style assessment of the first user, the computer implemented method determines whether there are common assessors between the first user and the second user, and responsive to a determination that there are common assessors between the first user and the second user, generates an adjusted social style assessment for the first user, and returns the adjusted social style assessment for the first user to the second user.

Abstract: A reputation data store provides reputation information to a user regarding the source of an electronic communication via a client. When the client receives an electronic communication, the client queries a reputation data store for reputation information regarding the source of the electronic communication. The client receives the reputation information from the reputation data store and displays the reputation information to the user. The user then decides whether to interact with the source of the electronic communication based on the displayed reputation information. Alternatively, an administrator may decide whether the user may interact with the source of the electronic communication.

Abstract: A system and method for facilitating access to online employment opportunities between employers and job seekers, wherein the system will rank both job seekers and employers based on a predetermined points schedule, and wherein the system will automatically match job seekers with job listings, and employers with job seekers, and finally wherein employers will purchase contact information for job seekers they are interested for a system-determined price based on job seeker's rank within the system.

Abstract: A system and method for establishing fame-related weighted values associated with persons, places, or things through the automated analysis and collection of quantitative and contextual fame-related data, and for presenting such objective measurement to one or more users of such system.

Abstract: A ranking method and system. The method includes receiving by a computing system from a first user, a selection for a first candidate skill. The first user is presented with a first group of predetermined criteria. The first group is associated with the first candidate skill. The first user assigns ranking percentage data associated with the first group. A list including portions of the assigned ranking percentage data assigned to each predetermined criteria of the first group is transmitted to a second user. The computing system receiving from the second user a list of candidates and responses to each predetermined criteria of the first group. The computing system receives from the first user, evaluation data related to the responses. The computing system ranks the candidates of the list based on the assigned ranking percentage data and the evaluation data.
