1. A method for generating a standardized model for a resource via social computing on a computer network comprising: receiving a request for the registration of a resource from a first client; collecting data defining at least one property of said resource to be registered; registering said resource with a server computer having a plurality of clients coupled thereto; receiving a subsequent request for the registration of a new substantially similar resource from a subsequent client; providing said subsequent client with earlier collected data from other clients defining the properties of said existing resource; receiving data chosen by said subsequent client defining the properties of said new substantially similar resource; weighting said collected data defining said at least one property of said resource based on the frequency of selection of said data to define said at least one property of said resource by clients of the server registering a substantially similar resource; designating a consensus, of said plurality of clients, of the defining properties of said substantially similar resources as the defining properties for a synthetic standard format model for said resource and substantially similar resources based on said weighted data; defining a new model for said substantially similar resource wherein said data, chosen by said subsequent client registering a substantially similar resource, does not correspond to the properties defining a substantially similar resource included in an existing model; and generating a revised standard by merging received data, designated by a plurality of clients making subsequent request to register substantially similar resources, with the existing standard synthetic format model.
