Abstract

Feedback is provided to sources of information entities regarding subsequent utilization of those entities, thereby providing a measure of control through feedback loops that can include incentives or disincentives for specific tasks performed on entities, or tasks performed by specific services. An entity source, including intermediate sources and original authors of a cohesive collection of information that is an “entity”, provide those entities together with a return message template and an interface to which a return message is to be directed when a subsequent task is performed on that entity. Intermediate services, such as user agents, can add their own return message templates and interfaces to which return messages are to be directed. Subsequent performance of tasks on those entities comprises the creation and transmission of return messages to the interfaces specified and transmitted with the entity, thereby enabling prior systems to maintain logs of the utilization of an entity.
