Abstract: When analyzing the online comments on some platforms, their perceived importance / accuracy and/or relevance relative to a location is quantified using two variables: the Gratitude – Appreciation Points(in case of amfostacolo.ro) and the score. While the score should be the “real” value, the Gratitude – Appreciation Points represents the social correction of that value. The research base was the travel comments website Am Fost Acolo/ I Was There (amfostacolo.ro), which is a Romanian site where you can gather and where you can post holiday impressions, you can watch pictures, you can see and compare deals and can make bookings.
