The Digital Footprints of the Judges and Hosts of The Voice

What is PeekScore?: PeekScore is a rank from 1 to 10, assigned to every person. The higher someone’s score, the “more important” they are on the web. In calculating your PeekScore and updating it often, PeekYou takes into account your known presence and activity on the Internet, including but not limited to; your blogging, participation in social networks, the number of your friends, followers, or readers, the amount of web content you create, and your prominence in the news. For first time visitors a more in-depth explanation of what the PeekScore is, and how to increase your own, can be found by clicking through here.

The American version of the enormously popular TV show / singing contest, The Voice, is now nearing the end of its fourth season. Inspired by the hubbub surrounding this occasion, we’ve put the program’s past and current hosts and judges through their PeekScore paces; measuring and comparing their assorted presences and impacts here on the Web, or if you prefer their “digital footprints” (a concept explained in this entry’s header and more in depth here).

On May 18th NBC’s Saturday Night Live will wrap its 38th season. Now that all of the remaining episodes’ guests have been booked and announced, we decided it would be fun to put all of this season’s hosts to the PeekScore test and compare their digital footprints (a concept explained in brief in this entry’s header, and more in depth here).

Our first place finisher will surprise few, if any, who are at all acquainted with this thing we call the internet. The enormously popular SNL host who is the runner up on our list isn’t bound to raise many eyebrows for his lofty spot either. But after that, there are some surprises to be found. Check it out.

In calculating your PeekScore and updating it often, PeekYou takes into account your known presence and activity on the Internet, including but not limited to; your blogging, participation in social networks, the number of your friends, followers, or readers, the amount of web content you create, and your prominence in the news.

Back in 2005, when it was first announced that an American version of Ricky Gervais‘ and Stephen Merchant‘s award winning, hit British sitcom The Office was in the works, few had high hopes for either its quality or its future. But, here we are nine seasons later, and that very same American remake finds itself finally signing off for good on May 16, after an impressive run, and as one of the more beloved American comedy programs of its era.

In honor of this occasion, we’ve taken all the most prominent series regulars from throughout the show’s run, and put them through their PeekScore paces, to see how they measure up here in cyberspace.

As it winds down, and we find ourselves nearly ready to ring it out, we can’t help but opine that 2012 – here in PeekYou‘s homeland of the United States, on the greater world stage, and in cyberspace alike – has not been a boring nor an unmemorable year to date. What we’ve done with this PeekScore list here is take some of the very biggest names from the news this year and see how they measure up here on the web, digital footprint-wise (you can find the “digital footprint” concept outlined in brief above, or more in depth by clicking through here).

The PeekScores of Some of the Best Known Celebrity Philanthropists

What is PeekScore?: PeekScore is a rank from 1 to 10, assigned to every person. The higher someone’s score, the “more important” they are on the web.

While some will have a laugh at what they perceive as the self-importance and/or half-informed pomposity of the below thespians, pop singers, and broadcasters, the fact is that each of these men and women at least tries to take the unusually bright lights shone upon them by society to illuminate what they believe to be some of the planet’s more pressing concerns. These are ten of the superstars best known for their charitable and/or humanitarian endeavors.

While frequently with these PeekScore lists we present them as a contest, or at least a comparison, of the various names involved, with this list – as such gamesmanship seems out of keeping with the altruism theme – we instead propose this is simply a look at the digital footprints of each of these folks individually, and conveniently presented together. Ain’t that big of us? None is any better than the other, merely more present and impactful online (You can find the whole “digital footprint” concept outlined in brief above, and more in depth by clicking through here.)
