What's this?

Who's leading the conversation?

This visualization below allows you to see the impact that each user has on the current conversation. The top row contains the group of users who have had the most impact, the 2nd row the group of users who have had the 2nd most impact (et cetera). Users with similar impact are grouped together, and the average score of the group is shown to the left of the group. The author of the article is also shown on the left, in their corresponding group. Each user's score is based on the number of comments the user has made plus the number of votes their comments have received. The scores are calculated relative one another, so while their absolute value is not particularly important, their relative difference does indicate a larger difference in impact on the conversation.

Whatever happened to cheesy syndicated shows on the weekends? You know, shows like Beast Master, Jack of All Trades, Cleopatra 2025. C/Net also used to have a few tech shows that aired over the weekend (one of them co-hosted by that Ryan Seacrest guy). Now, nothing.

Jack of All Trades! Ha! Love Bruce Campbell.

I'll see that and raise you a Hercules:The Legendary Journeys and Xena:Warrior Princess. Though The Adventures of Brisco County Junior certainly had more in the Bruce Campbell Goodness department than those two.
