GooseGrade is a tool that enables anybody to correct and comment on the work of bloggers and other online authors. This program is set to be released in the near future, and the many options that are going to be featured can be checked out by visiting the official site and reading the included press release.
In general terms, the program was inspired by a willingness to give internauts the tools for improving both the quality and accuracy of the information that can be found on the World Wide Web. Once a blogger installs the program, readers can suggest corrections based on aspects such as grammar and factual accuracy in order to make for a more enjoyable read. In GooseGrade parlance, the blogger or author becomes a “GooseGrade”, whereas the ones who suggest corrections are termed “GooseGraders”.
The GooseGrade system itself entails a rating which is modified whenever a reader suggests a correction. Upon accepting or rejecting a specific correction, the grade of the writer will change accordingly. GooseGraders also have a grade, and this changes as writers accept or reject their corrections.
