Abstract
Methods, systems and computer program products are described that incentivize users to provide feedback about, consume, and/or interact with content displayed on a user device. In accordance with embodiments, the user provides feedback about content items displayed on the user device, wherein each instance of feedback is classified into one of a plurality of predefined feedback types. Information related to the number of instances of each type of feedback generated by the user is transmitted from the user device to a server where such information is used to determine the value of an incentive to be awarded to the user. The incentives may take the form of credits that are accumulated in association with a user account and an interface may be provided by which the user can redeem the credits to obtain one or more items of value.
