I feel quite strongly that Jyte, although fun will never fulfill its potential unless major websites start embedding it and using it as a user rating service.
Jyte will be fun and have a nice community regardless. It just won't create a genuine and useful cred economy, which I believe is part of its potential.

I like cake.

Good point on the long tail.
I don't share your optimism about creds.
userful, nice, but not essential.
Do you think the cred economy will come about apart from jyte.
that's an interesting question; i have no idea.
