In any user interaction application, two things are important: minimizing spam and having a convenient data structure. In Conoted, where the emphasis is on knowledge and expert connections, this is especially critical. Here's how to effectively combat spam and organize note-messages for maximum benefit.
Fighting Spam: Key Approaches
1. Blacklist
If a user receives irrelevant note-messages, they can blacklist the sender. This will flag the user as a possible spammer and prevent unwanted interactions.
2. Ranking by Importance
Introducing a system for ranking notes by their relevance based on user actions:
- Number of times a note has been read.
- Ratings or comments from experts.
- Matching the note to the user's tags and interests.
3. May be a limitation for new users
To prevent mass spam, new users can be limited in their ability to send note messages until they reach certain activity levels in the app.
4. Automatic spam filtering
Algorithms can recognize template and irrelevant messages, blocking them before they are sent.
Structuring note-messages
1. Importance hierarchy
Note-messages are sorted by the following parameters:
- Notes from experts or users with a high rating.
- Relevance to the user's current interests and requests.
- Frequency of mentions or use in related notes.
2. Topics and tags
All notes-messages are automatically grouped by tags specified by the user or suggested by the system. This simplifies finding information and connections between topics.
3. User Ranking
A ranking system is created for users based on their contribution to the system. Users with a high rank receive more attention to their notes.
4. Social Graph
All notes-messages within a topic are grouped and displayed as connections in a social graph.
Benefits for users
- Time savings: you can immediately see which notes are most relevant.
- Improved interaction quality: garbage information is removed, only valuable data remains.
- Ease of navigation: a structured knowledge base becomes a powerful tool for work.
Conclusion
The combination of automatic spam filtering technologies and a notes-messages ranking system makes Conoted an even more effective tool. Organized data helps users find the information they need faster and establish useful connections.
