*** From aaronp 1/3/2011:
Once someone has installed an app via USC, when do they get the opportunity to review it? In my own experience, once I've installed an app, I'm generally not viewing it again in USC unless I'm uninstalling, so I would never review it. So, even without prompting users to review apps upon removal, I think our reviews will naturually pull to the negative side just because users aren't necessarily going to take the time to review apps they have installed.

My proposed solution:
Upon opening USC we currently "have X recommendations for you". I think we should have something similar here like "You recently installed X applications and haven't reviewed them yet. Click here to help out others by giving your opinion"
Clicking could then take you to the history of installed apps where the user can invoke a review on any app they have installed (or removed I guess)
We would only bother them with this lobby screen prompt for apps that have been installed over a week or so ago (to give them time to try it before reviewing)
