TechCrunch, about The Gorb:

Online reputation online (sic) is a fascinating area, partially because eBay, through their feedback score, is the only company to have reached scale. […]

Gorb allows, even insists on, anonymous comments and ratings about an individual. Like someone? Hate them? Tell Gorb all about it, using their handy Ajax slider to rate them from 1 - 10 in their professional and personal lives, and leave written comments as well. […]

With Gorb, there’s absolutely nothing to lose by telling someone how bad they smell, or how much you dislike the tone of their voice. Libel away.

The best part is, you can rate people even if they haven’t registered, as long as you know their email address — it’s like a Wikipedia for egos. Yeah, it’s ugly, but it’s also awesome. And it seems too be pretty well thought-out through and through, and made pretty seriously.

Want to know when I post new content to my blog? It's a simple as registering for free to an RSS aggregator (Feedly, NewsBlur, Inoreader, …) and adding www.ff00aa.com to your feeds (or www.garoo.net if you want to subscribe to all my topics). We don't need newsletters, and we don't need Twitter; RSS still exists.
