The value of social a social network

Ever see a comment by a troll?

Better start by asking what a troll is. Apparently it's tech speak for a person who leaves a really stupid or rude comment in an online forum to get laughs from everyone else. Check it out:

Yea, we've all seen the type.

But if you ever wondered why Facebook has a $50 billion value then think of what it's doing: leveraging it's network of real people to provide a service to help websites keep the posts clean. It's that network of real people that makes it so valuable.

What do you think about it? Will this idea work?
