Trust between buyers and sellers plays an essential role in online shopping. Therefore, reputation systems are, typically, integrated with online shopping systems to form trust decisions between sellers and buyers. Online Social Networks (OSNs), such as Twitter, LinkedIn, MySpace and Facebook connect people from all over the world in a virtual community. OSNs can provide information about the relationships between people. This information can be used to improve the reliability of reputation systems. With twitter having over than 200 million users and due to its microblogging nature, we choose twitter as a basis for a reputation system
