Ranking Systems and Things Esoteric
Whimsical story to go with this bizarre pic.... I have never ever seen this image before, of Joseph Goebbels looking like he's ready to do something comical for the photographer, something for which Hitler probably would've ordered his execution.... I was going to delete this story but revised and expanded it instead. This blog's Alexa ranking shot up to 136,000, 107,761 103,627 (it's 79,965 today, but has been hovering around 80k for a while) in the U.S.. The lower the number, the better the ranking. What the hell is Alexa ? Well, it offers insights into a website's popularity. You visit Alexa.com, paste an http address in the included search box -- and then view estimates of that site's ranking in both the site's native country and the world.
