Quote:What is ://URLFAN?http://www.urlfan.com/site/about/300.html
://URLFAN is an evolving experiment designed to discover what websites the blogosphere is discussing all in real time. It does this by cultivating the content of thousands of RSS feeds and parsing billions of pieces of information.
Now every website owner can see who's talking about their site in real time and how they compare to every other site on the Internet. There are many sites designed to rank the "traffic" of a website, such as Alexa, however ://URLFAN is different. We rank sites according to their popularity in the fast moving and growing world of RSS feeds.
Unlike Alexa, there is no approximating in our ranking system since we're using concrete data to generate the results. ..
The longer we're able to gather data the more accurate ://URLFAN will become. We hope this will provide publishers with a useful tool in tracking their sites and how their content is referenced by other websites.
