Abstract
A system and machine-implemented method for processing a social endorsement for an item. Structured data for a first item is received in association with a first webpage, the structured data for the first item defining properties of the first item that are specific to the first item. An indication of a social endorsement for the first item is received in association with the first webpage. In response to receiving the indication of the social endorsement, an item element corresponding to the first item is identified within a data structure. The data structure stores plural item elements, each item element including a description of the item and social endorsement information associated with the item. The social endorsement information associated with the identified item element is updated within the data structure, based on the received indication of the social endorsement for the first item.
