Ranking rankings

Posted by Harry Seldon on September 01, 2008

Web 2 is a lot about grading and ranking. So I guess it is logical that bloggers themselves get ranked. However there are dozens of ranking systems. Thus bloggers get their revenge: they can rank the ranking systems !
Ouriel Ohayon made a great post (in French) here and he asks the following :
Which ranking is, according to you, the most meaningful ?
You can answer below:

As I am coding the poll website thinkosphere.com you probably already know that I am a huge fan of internet polls, even if they currently lack too many features. Thanks to this post I discovered one more lacking feature : publishing a poll in several languages. I do not know about a poll engine offering this capability. I guess I will have to do it myself !

Hello Blogosphere !

Posted by Harry Seldon on August 06, 2008

Hi, 

I am glad to join at last the blogosphere. I had to use Typo for my blogging engine. First because it is in Rails and I have been coding in Rails for one year during my leisure time. The website is Thinkosphere.com. The second reason is simply that the home of Typo is Typosphere and, just like the name of my website, I like the xsphere words such as blogosphere, technosphere or datasphere (from Dan Simmons’books).

Next step will be to add a blog for the Thinkosphere. Waiting for that blog, let me tell you what the thinkosphere website is. It aims at accelerating the democracy giving people advanced tools to poll themselves, to analyse the polls, to discuss, to take actions and to follow-up these actions.

Welcome !
