PubSub’s Community Lists - new features & FAQ
Steven Cohen, PubSub’s librarian, has announced recently a couple of new features for PubSub’s Community Lists (as you might remember, the PR Community List was launched on November 7, 2005):
- in addition to the daily LinkRanks, the list has a ranking based on a 30 day average of LinkRanks
- you can search across the blogs included in a community list, and subscribe to search results via RSS - here’s how. Two examples of searches restricted to the PR Community List:
- the RSS feed for measurement, i.e. [measurement OR evaluation OR survey OR surveys OR "survey research" NOT ("survey monkey" OR surveymonkey)]
- the RSS feed for press releases (a hot topic in the PR blogosphere), i.e. ["press releases" OR "news releases" OR "media releases"] (more on how to build a query)
- finally, there’s a comprehensive FAQ about LinkRank, the algorithm used by PubSub for ranking blogs. Check it out.
