A method for leveraging the wisdom of the crowd with online ratings, comprising: displaying at least one user selectable interface component related to a displayed rating value, the at least one user selectable interface component comprising either: a slider; two buttons on either side of a displayed rating; or two buttons on a same side of a displayed rating; allowing a user to click or drag the at least one user selectable interface component in order to adjust the displayed rating value from an initial rating value to an adjusted rating value, where a differential time cost for adjusting the displayed rating value is introduced, the differential time cost based on a difference between the adjusted rating value and the initial rating value, such that a first difference has a first time cost, and a second difference greater than the first difference has a second time cost greater than the first time cost, where the user must maintain a depression of a button of an input device to adjust the displayed rating value, slowing a rate at which the displayed rating as the difference between the adjusted rating value and the initial rating value increases or decreases.
