I discovered an interesting little widget on my travels around the blogosphere yesterday: The Blog Readability Test. Type in your blog’s url and presto! It gives you a nifty little digi-sticker with your blog’s reading level on it. But it gets better– it works on regular websites too! Since I’m a nerd I looked up presidential candidates’ websites straight away. This is what I found…
DEMOCRATS:
BarakObama.com – College, Post Grad
JohnEdwards.com – Genius
HillaryClinton.com – Jr. High School*
REPUBLICANS:
JohnMcCain.com – High School
MittRomney.com – Elementary School
MikeHuckabee.com – Genius**
JoinRudy2008.com – High School
RonPaul2008.com – High School
When reading these results, keep in mind that half of America is below average at everything, always.
*which may explain the crying. Junior High can be a nightmare.
**if you hate evolution
