What Ever Happened to Evite?
Oct 07, 2008

Submitted by Sarahintampa from Google Reader: During the dot-com boom, Evite was “it” when it came to online invitations. Everyone seemed to use it to the point where Evite was synonymous with organizing events on the Web. Then, Evite was acquired by IAC/Ticketmaster in early 2001, and subsequently disappeared into the bowels of Barry Diller’s online empire.I hadn’t th (Read More)

Page Rank is the Ultimate Measure of Online Influence
Oct 05, 2008

Submitted by Louisgray from Google Reader: Friends, Romans, countrymen, followers, page views, in-bound links, share of voice, unique visitors and subscribers. These are just some of the more common ways serious content creators (and those who hope to reach them) measure online influence. However there are big flaws in all of these metrics. Followers and/or RSS (Read More)

Piercemattiepr,
Oct 06, 2008
: I semi disagree. Using blogs as an example, I know several well known and highly influential beauty and fashion blogs who previously held a page rank of 6. When Google last did it's major shake up a few months ago and stated that affiliate links needed to have a "no follow" tag in the code, these blogs suddenly became a 3. They had been using affiliate links in their posts without no follow tags. To any advertiser, marketer or PR person coming upon these blogs for the first time after the Page Rank striping, a 3 is mediocre and it would be assumed that they may not have much of an influence in the blogosphere--and they would be mistaken. Of course, you also have those bloggers who have been around a while that may be jumping off of the Blogger.com bandwagon and establishing their own domains. Automatically they start from scratch with page rank even if their traffic came with them.

However, I do agree that it is something that takes time to build and is earned and I do think page rank is part of a well rounded look at the quality of a site.

What do you think of the splogs out there that have gained page rank despite being entirely stolen content?

:
@karenswim This is exactly what I was discussing with someone the other day! Influence is more spread out and not solely contained to one location for a specific "influencer." The conversations that take place may be fragmented because of this, but it doesn't make them or the person initiating the conversation any less important or influential due to the page rank being higher or lower for a particular profile/page.

: That screenshot shows widgetlaboratory.ning.com... this was WL's site on Ning that was shut down by Ning along with the termination of their widgets.

Ning also claims that WL broke Ning in Internet Explorer for all WL users at one point, so that's sort of a takedown as well.
