Use cases

 * Vouch comment spam
 * Ushahidi Tracker
 * Location: who do I trust to know where I am?
 * Known had a 24 hour checkin delay option

Brian: Pine.blog has four levels of comment moderation. Wants some middle ground
 * accept from anyone.
 * don't accept
 * don't accept

Dave: XFN for marking up relationships

Location

 * checks in on Swarm various places (like here) where he's fine with it being relatively public, but he doesn't check into his kids' school, so would like some different levels of trust

undefined I also use Swarm and trust location data to a subset of friends

Difference between trusting medical records (e.g. to my doctor), and location information.

Cornelius: is there prior art?
 * LinkedIn has endorsements

I like the concept of web rings as a trust signal as well.
