Why the Popularity Engine
Is a Natural Born Killer

Jesse Berst, Editorial Director
ZDNet AnchorDesk

Say you're in New York and you're
searching for a great place to eat. You ask your friends
what they've discovered, right?

Say you're on the Web and you're searching for a topic.
What if you could find out what everybody on the Web
has discovered? Ranked in order of popularity?

That's the idea behind Direct Hit's Popularity Engine. It
records which sites are visited most often after people
enter a search term. You get a shortcut to the best of
the best, as recommended by millions of users. I've
just named it this year's first Natural Born Killer (NBK)
