If there鈥檚 one thing that makes the world go 鈥榬ound, it鈥檚 trust - trust in institutions, trust in science, trust in the economy, trust in each other. Trust is what protects our vulnerability; it鈥檚 behind the unspoken social contracts that keep us safe. Without trust, we鈥檙e done.

And since the beginning of our love-hate relationship with the Web, we鈥檝e been wondering: is computer-mediated communication eroding trust? Or, does it make trust stronger? Or, are we more likely to misplace it more now that we can鈥檛 see, touch and smell a person鈥檚 true intentions?
