Yeah, adding levels of value to the Twitter Friends brings in the social capital. TweetDeck-like sorting of Friends into streams/groups helps. I have a pretty limited Private Twitter Stream otherwise would be completely overwhelmed by all the tweets coming in, I'm not sure how others manage that... Optional links per post: "Do you trust this person?" "Was this tweet helpful or valuable?" "Do you want to see more tweets from this person?" "Block this person." "Rate this post." "Rate this person." ... "Is anything this person says of value to you? At all?" The social capital stuff starts to get really personal down the line... Right, social capital, the Whuffie, is on it’s way…

Optional links per post:
“Do you trust this person?”
“Was this tweet helpful or valuable?”
“Do you want to see more tweets from this person?”
“Block this person.”
“Rate this post.”
“Rate this person.”
…
“Is anything this person says of value to you? At all?”

The social capital stuff starts to get really personal down the line…

I just wonder if it might be nice to have a rating system for posts and posters... or at least some way to clean off the spam a bit. Or is will it always be a “level playing field”?

I wonder if Twitter has anything like this on the drawing board: "Promote quality contributors. If you display all contributions equally, then people who post only when they have something important to say will be drowned out by the torrent of material from the hyperactive 1%. Instead, give extra prominence to good contributions and to contributions from people who've proven their value, as indicated by their reputation ranking."
