Why should any of you knuclkeheads who use this device be questioning it's ramifications, after all aren't you the same wackos who have intimate cell phone conversations in public & abhor anyone who asks you to tone it down. I mean like com'on, arent you the same dim-wits who opposed Obama speaking to school children because you feared a lack of control but yet let your little snot brats attend school wearing laptops, Pdf's & cell phones & not knowing who or what they are viewing & talking to.

I am not in any photos with her either and we share no common friends. And she has more than 200 friends so it's surprising I got ranked #10. So perhaps it does measure page views...otherwise what else could account for my rating?

I don't see any uniqueness or fun in them so I went on a witch hunt to find other similar apps and then started blocking them.
