No advertiser is going to want actual users to tag their product with comments. Think about Yelp! They already spam their own businesses with good reviews and opponents' businesses with bad reviews. No way will business allow this technology to work as the commentator thinks it will.
People already are inundated with messages, texts, tweets, yelps, photos, ads--- It's like having a crowd walking around in your head with their dirty shoes, interrupting you.
There's a Bill Hicks video-- he asks the audience--"are you in advertising?........... Kill yourself, please!"
@vivaloriflamme Most people live in a world of self indulgence and are absolutely clueless. Consumerism is for simple minded people who don't think for themselves, and the advertisers feed off of their ignorance. And the funny part is, is that most of the advertisers are clueless to what they are actually doing.
the problem with stickybits and similars is when the owners of the product make the reviews... besides that its great. i think they could improve even more saying who profits and how much, the ambiental damage etc... but that would need an independent work team... that would be even more great
Like GodEquals said, once the makers of products get wind of Stickybits, they're just gonna end up manipulating it as well which will result in totally invalidating people's own input.
Stickybits looks great; the chalk app is stupid.

All these things just add to the noise level of our daily lives. They quickly become irrelevant.

It all sounds futuristic and high tech, but it's meaningless really, isn't it?

Yes it is!
But so is everything else.
The universe does not care.
The question of meaning has to be answered by yourself for yourself.
So there is no objective meaning, but there is a subjective one.
