Are You Internet Famous? How celebs are you on blog meter?

Now , as a blogger in research my own ( or yours ) data on blogging life, i try using the Wired Celebrity Meter to find out how big a deal I ( or you ) you really are. The Wired algorithm will dig through your personal pages to find out how many fans are following your online exploits.

Long Version .
How it Works ?

Google crawls the entire internet every couple of weeks and has recently started to keep track of who is linked to whom on social networks, blogs and just about every page they crawl. This new service is called Google Social Graph. 

Although there are a few different standards for highlighting links like these, most social networking sites, blog software and hosting services support one or more. They're relying on site builders to highlight such links by using special markup. Google uses this information to build a graph of all sites and their links to one another.

Rather than request the API from each site individually (Twitter followers, MySpace friends, etc.), Google provides a single RESTful API to send a simple query in one shot. While there are limits to this data (Facebook info is currently not available in this widget), the information we're getting is real and the friend information we're getting isn't a simple number but a list of live URLs that Google has vetted for us.

Short Version .
How it Works ? 
The Celebrity Meter scans URLs and scores internet fame based on:

• webpages linking to you .
• your friends across social networks ( just Twitter and MySpace for now wired will expand more soon...) .
• pages linking to your photos .

The Celebrity Meter is an ongoing project and currently in beta. Wired team are working toward adding additional networks.
