The second Rest of the Mac Web (RotMW) survey, an opinion poll covering
a good segment of the independent Mac Web, is done. Voting took place
over a two week period, and nearly 1,200 individuals shared their
opinion of 50 of the best known independent Mac-related sites on the
Web - including one of the newest.
Weighted Rating
Begun with the second BotMW survey we crated a weighted rating that
looks at both how well known a site is and how well respected it is.
The score is generated by multiplying the square root of the number of
responses by the score.
