Very good points on the difference between popularity and authority. You are pushing me to really think and discern the difference.</p>Jim WaltonThu, 16 Feb 2006 20:51:49 -0000Re: Power Laws, Popularity, Authority, A-Lists and the Rest&#8230;http://climbtothestars.org/archives/2006/02/16/power-laws-popularity-authority-a-lists-and-the-rest/#comment-1774688<p>Very interesting post, Bunny. I've been discussing the same in the Spanish blogosphere. I don't have problems with any kind of tops or rankings, popularity or authority: they are useful if you know what they mean. Computers are limited and it's very difficult to program an algorithm that sorts by "quality", whathever it means.</p>rvrThu, 16 Feb 2006 14:45:46 -0000Re: Power Laws, Popularity, Authority, A-Lists and the Rest&#8230;http://climbtothestars.org/archives/2006/02/16/power-laws-popularity-authority-a-lists-and-the-rest/#comment-1774687<p>Two words : Paris.
