PageRank

Yet another Niki subject I have no clue about: PageRank.

But nothing fazes me when I have the Internet (also known as the Wise One).

PageRank is another one of those Google inventions. It measures a webpage’s importance using an algorithm. Webpages with a higher PageRank are more likely to appear at the top of Google search results.

Random trivia: did you know the word algorithm is a synonym for death? And I’m not even going to pretend I know what those colourful circles mean.

Sorry, further explanations on PageRank were full of math and science and induced headaches. But I promise I’ll brave the alphanumeric storm and produce a godly Niki on this. Stay tuned.

Lastly, on a side note: I’m perplexed as to why we have different Niki groups for each entry. Is this meant to be a form of networking? I’m more than happy to work with new group mates, but with the extremely limited amount of time Summer school affords us, communication would be far easier if we were in the same groups for each entry.
