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.

Forbes has very recently released their annual list of the 10 women they believe to be the most powerful in the world. You can head over to Forbes to get more insight into what criteria they used to determine their findings, but – to the degree that such a thing as “power” is quantifiable – we will say that their list seems to be ballpark accurate, if nothing else. These are surely 10 enormously influential women. While we hope to one day live in a world where there’s no novelty whatsoever to the notion of a woman in a position of power, influence, or leadership, we at this time have no problem acknowledging those women who have achieved and/or gained such statuses on the world stage.

Anyway, it’s not our place to rank or compare the various powers of these women, but to instead see how they stack up here in cyberspace. This is a look at their digital footprints, a concept you will find explained in brief in the above disclaimer and more in detail if you click through here.

Are there any women you’re shocked to see included on Forbes’ list? Any women you’re upset to see excluded? Let us know in the comments.
