Rapleaf adds 'Hover and Discover'
The online reputation site Rapleaf provides a way for peers and previous business associates to contribute to an online reputation rating--the sort of thing the Better Business Bureau would've thought of if only they'd had a Web 2.0 nerd on staff. But since we first took a look at Rapleaf, the fellas from the Bay Area have added a new feature, something called "Hover and Discover".When you hover over a Rapleaf attribute with the mouse pointer, Rapleaf will now show you where it got the information that makes up an element in your Rapleaf rating--whether it was gleaned from a social networking site such as MySpace or provided by a peer who claims to know you. Yeah, all these factors contribute to Rapleaf's estimation of your reputation, and now you can tell where the info actually came from. Useful... especially if Rapleaf got some detail wrong about you!
