Are you a popular guy on Wikipedia?
A lot of people use Wikipendia, but until now there’s been no way to see what topics are the most popular.
Wikirank solves that problem, with a new tool that shows how each Wikipedia topic ranks in popularity.
Users familiar with Google Analytics will recognize the setup. Users can search for statistics on each topic (for example, page views on "Barack Obama" during the last 30 days, etc.). In addition, there’s a list of top Wikipedia topics and a list of the most dramatic traffic shift in popularity in the last 24 hours. So, for example, if you want to compare searches for your own name with Barack Obama, a nice little Google Analytics-looking graph reveals your performance. You can share the information with friends.
Wikirank is the first product from San Francisco-based Small Batch, run by Jeffrey Veen, previously a co-founder at Visible Path, and project lead for Measure Map, a company later sold to Google. The inspiration for Wikirank came from how Twitter users employ Twitter search.
