'Hey! Nielsen' Rates Celebs' Impact
CA fans are adding to their regular online destinations Hey! Nielsen, a real time indicator of a topic/celebrity's impact and value in which users play a major role in determining the rankings.
As opinions and commentary are submitted, the score for a celeb rises or falls based on a number of factors: user opinions, comments, user ratings, news coverage, Internet buzz, and raw data from Billboard, Hollywood Reporter, and Blog Pulse. Scores are calculated daily.
An opinion counts the most toward the HN score, followed by written comments on another poster's opinions, and, thirdly, reactions to other opinions. You are allowed to write one opinion per topic every 24 hours and one comment per any single opinion (including your own).
