Is a score of 588 good? :D

Damn, I miss Carl Yankowski. He holds the record for most buzzwords spewed by a CEO. "User-centric consumer solutions.....transparent elegance...consumer focussed solutions"...blah blah blah. :roll:

Palm.com only has a score of 228. That seems awfully low to me. :twisted:

I'm afraid to try Apple.com. The buzzmeter may explode. :lol:

That's because the entire front page is nothing but graphics. Buzzwordmeter only analyzes text.

Sad, I know, but did you notice that 548 and 525 are both model numbers for HP Jornadas?

I reckon that it's all the advertising spiel from news posts that pushes it up.

PocketGamer scored a fantastic 97. It comes from the heart there!!

Uhm.... YES! That's my story and I'm sticking to it!

FWIW, I ran this at lunch time against a bunch of other PDA related sizes. Our buzzosity trampled theirs! :lol:

We got a 448, not as cool as PPCThoughts score however. Thats a crazy site, very cool idea.

My Star Trek site scored a 0 for geek. Just what I have been saying for years.

What does the "suit" score signify?

Hm... It doesn't like kensai.com (http://www.kensai.com/).

Can't blame 'em.

"Suits" are business-types. Those anal-retentive people you see spewing http://www.thebacklash.com/emote/hurl2.gif (corporate) buzzwords and carrying palms http://www.thebacklash.com/emote/hurl2.gif. Also known (in some circles) as the people who have no idea as to how the businesses they run actually function.

Interesting stuff is Slashdot got only 152 for Geek index!

I think Ed's post with lots of Buzzwords in the front of this article was intentional to make the average higher...

My numbers in the original post were what the site generated. The newer fatter numbers you see now are because of my post.

I was thinking exactly the same thing. I was actually thinking it was something on how to mod the heck out of the 548 or the 525 for WiFi or the such. :oops:
