Abstract
Millions of people relay on the Internet to do their work, to discover new things, to learn what is happening around them, or to find entertainment for themselves.
The utilization of the web should provoke such questions as: how much can we relay on the web to discover new things? how many sources of data are trustworthy? how much imprecision and incorrectness is out there? All this becomes very relevant when we take into consideration the fact that the users’ involvement in creating and shaping the web is growing. Tweets, posts, blogs, e-mails, pieces of text, and documents are examples of the users’ direct, spontaneous, and uncontrolled contributions.
