Follow-up on High ranking Guy... PREOPLE.COM BUSTED

The other day I posted about a cool site called PREOPLE.COM. These guys claim to have a secret complex ranking formula. Well, here I am to bust their formula. Why? Check this out.

My rank at preople.com is 10,200. If you search for my name in Google, then you get 10,200 hits.
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&q=%22Eric+den+Doop%22

Rick's rank at preople.com is 2,770. Google returns 2,710 hits.
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&q=%22Rick+Bean%22

Andrew's rank at preople.com is 833. Google returns 847 hits.
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&q=%22Andrew+MacNeill%22

Thom de Graaf, our former minister for Government Reform and Kingdom Relations, is a very important guy according to preople.com: PR 47,300. Again... Google returns 47,300 hits.

And now the funny one. The PR for a guy called “Bull Shit“ is 176,000. Google returns 176,000 hits.
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&q=%22Bull+Shit%22

Note: Google numbers may vary because they have a number of datacenters all over the world and their DC's do not always share the same search index.

BUSTED!
(ok I admit... I always watch Myth Busters on the Discovery Channel)

And Bill Gates? 3,420,000

Jesus Christ? He's well over 6 million.

Still a cool service.
