Decaying Review Scores
A problem (or not) with product reviews and giving them a score is that they don’t often decay (get worst/lower as time goes on).
As a product, movie, restaurant, e.t.c that was popular before in the year 2000, may no longer be popular or up to the current standards. I’m not too sure what review websites (Amazon, Yelp..) implement a decaying algorithm on scoring. But it would be interesting to find out if any do or if this would actually provide a positive impact on the results.
This was just a random thought as I’m currently working on a website to help make better informed consumer choices for makers, creators and startups. I’m exploring service/product ranking & relevancy algorithms.

rating should probably...relative weight of older ratings should decline.
