I was in my routine blog prowling when I came across this site: mingle2.com which rates your blog much like a movie. I tried this one out just to see how they actually rate a blog:

This rating was determined based on the presence of the following words: porn (1x)


I guess the the sites searches for certain words (blacklisted or porn-related) then determines how many they are to determine the blog rating. The “porn” word was actually from my viral icons on the loose posting. The word was not used in context but rather referred to the rules of the viral icons posting.

You can see that my blog is actually rated G, which means that even babies can read my blog (that is, if they already know how to read).

I think that blog classification is a great idea. When people come to your blog and see that your blog is rated G, then they can be sure that no lewd things are posted in the blog. What do you think?

    Hmm, I would think that as a very subjective. :)

    Sometimes when we blog we would lose our patient or we are being too excited when expressing something for readers, we might use the words as the replacement to show that we really meant something.

    Hi, Iz. Yes, I agree.

    I tried out them out just to see what criteria they base their ratings on. As you can see, they only count words that are associated with adult content.

    This may not be quite reliable, but surely a fun way to see how many “bad” words you have used in your entire site. :)
