Could you please be a little bit more verbose?
Here: PageRank relies on the uniquely democratic nature of the web by using its vast link structure as an indicator of an individual page's value. In essence, Google interprets a link from page A to page B as a vote, by page A, for page B. But, Google looks at more than the sheer volume of votes, or links a page receives; it also analyzes the page that casts the vote. Votes cast by pages that are themselves "important" weigh more heavily and help to make other pages "important." So I'm saying perhaps EFF has more votes then Debian does. -- ...Adam Di Carlo...<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>.......<URL:http://www.onshored.com/>
