- lozzo 9y agoInteresting. how does it work ?
- guohuang 9y agowe pull data from public archives and run our own algorithm then return the top talked scores to users.
- Bilters 9y agoI've seen a couple of 'most mentioned' pass by in recent years, all seem to have a different algorithm & outcome of all the most mentioned books. If I compare yours to i.e. http://hackernewsbooks.com/ http://hackernewsbooks.com/ the top mentioned book is vastly different than the one on your site. I mean this is not a problem at all, just found this interesting.
- guohuang 9y agoyes, we did the same comparison before launching, according to our source, our data is up to date, we are updating our data monthly. As you said it could be because we are using different algorithm therefore we get different result.
