	:~~In time~~, ~~it will be sensitive to their~~ [[~~individual buying criteria~~]] ~~and whatever~~ [[~~institutional buying criteria~~]] or [[~~faction~~]] ~~considerations they commit to~~.		This '''Main Page Consumer''' is to help you, the [[Consumerium:Consumer]], do [[Consumerium Service access]] by [[HTTP]]. That is, just to browse the actual information about companies (on what we call [[Consumerium:intermediate page]]s) with some crude tools.

	~~It will include prominent links~~ to the [[~~Consumerium:Consumer_FAQ~~]].		For now, you may aggregate a [[Consumerium buying signal]] as a printable page by making a [[watchlist]] of relevant pages, printing [[related changes]], the summary to changes of which highlight the [[score]] and [[price premium]] of the relevant company or product per [[faction]]. That is, what [[Greens]] think of it, what [[Pinks]] think of it, etc.. More [[individual buying criteria]] will eventually be supported when [[healthy buying infrastructure]] is more established. To assure you that all of this is fair and accurate:

	~~It will have short notes~~ to ~~redirect potential~~ [[Consumerium~~:Researcher~~]]~~s to~~ [[~~Main Page Researcher~~]] and [[Consumerium:~~Developer~~]]s to [[~~Main Page Developer~~]]. ~~Please keep~~ in ~~mind that these people are also consumers~~, and ~~it is likely their concern~~ as ~~consumers that motivates their other work here~~.		A [[Consumerium Governance Organization]] may also develop or aggregate other software to assist in the compilation and validation of information to guide purchasing. For integrity reasons and to prevent bad copies and misleading competitors, this may require a more specific [[Consumerium License]] regime.

			Other [[fair trade]] and [[political consumerism]] [[essential projects]] may also help you do [[moral purchasing]]. Your '''''[[moral purchasing power]]''''' is what we attempt to focus with the [[Consumerium Services]]. One possible design:

			:Our front end will be seen by the [[end user]] as a [[red light\|red]]/[[yellow light\|yellow]]/[[green light]] traffic-type signal, or as a [[score]] easily translated into a [[price premium]], or as a note in [[Simple English]] about issues with, or merits of, the product. Release of this advice is keyed to [[bar code]]s.

			:There are several ways to connect back to front end: we may rely on frequently updated data embedded in hand-held devices, and/or dynamic retrieval via [[short-range wireless]] to the shelf front. Where possible, reasons for making buying decisions, or refusing a certain product, will go as [[feedback]] to the [[producer]]s.
