Who's the hottest scienceblogger?

More playing around with the Postgenomic API.

Postgenomic collects a lot of stats. The relative hotness of different bloggers is not one of these stats. This must be rectified.

I'll put up an analysis of the results tommorrow.

Where do the images come from?

Looks like they're from Technorati. At least that's where my avatar is from. Too bad or I'd have won hands down. haha!! ;)

Yeah, it's Technorati.

Is it a fixed list? Because I just added my image to my technorati profile.

Bug/incompatibility: Using Firefox 1.5.0.6 on Mac OS 10.4.7, the images don't load. Works fine on Safari on the same machine.

Yeah, if you upload a new portrait to Technorati it should appear here sometime in the following twelve hours.

Same goes for any other science blogger (unless your blog is new and I've never heard of it, in which case tell me and I'll add you to the Postgenomic index).

Scratch my earlier comment; it turns out that the pics only fail to load if I'm using a proxy (which I have to do if I'm trying to read journals via university subscription from my house). I turned it off and it's fine now.

Also, Stew - please add my site when you get a chance -- I had been meaning to pester you about it again but now that I'm missing the hotness contest the matter has become urgent :-)

You should be in there already, CP. The blog index on postgenomic.com is out of date (technical trouble) but this script uses the latest version of the database.
