PostRank, a firm that tracks Internet influence with its own proprietary algorithm, has just announced by e-blast that Chris Dodd, who is being driven from office by his angry constituents, is the most influential blogger in the U.S. Senate for 2009. Dodd also won second place as “most engaging,” behind Sen. Jim DeMint, R-S.C.
PostRank’s algorithm probably doesn’t measure the number of people who visited the blog because they hate Dodd — perhaps to complain or to find negative information about him.
