Hot Blogs: how its calculated. Includes a Poll.
The Planet Lotus Hot Blog list is currently made up of the 6 boggers that have received the most clicks for the past 5 days from all their posts, i.e., from searches, mobile.planetlotus.org, inside their profile, previews, etc.
Is this fine or should it be limited to clicks on the past 5 days worth of blog entries; take the poll?
Your opinion counts!

I think all blog entries should count, not just the last 5 days. If a 6 day old entry is getting a large number of clciks, it is an indication that the blog is active/hot.

@yancy
“boggers” ????
LOL
You getting a dig in at the paddies on PL?
I think you could perhaps you could weight the “hotness” with your content rating to keep the less Domino-y entries like some of mine out of the hit parade.

maybe overall, maybe the last 5 days. If you missed something from last week that was big, the current one won’t reflect that. Plus now we enter Digg status.. eww

@Chris “If you missed something from last week that was big, the current one won’t reflect that.”
The way it is today would catch this, the other option would not.
I have to check into digg status; what don’t you like about it?
