Nielsen is teaming up with Adobe to rank everything on the internet. Why partner with Adobe? :(

The most striking development in Adobe’s new system is that it’s designed for comparing disparate kinds of content. The new ratings, Nielsen says, can rank an online video next to a podcast next to an article. Unlike television or radio, the internet isn’t a medium that funnels just one format. The aim of Nielsen’s new ratings is to create a context to figure out what people care about online, regardless of what form it takes.

Way to try to reinvent the wheel Nielsen. If you wanna know what happens on the Internet, just ask Google. They keep track of everyone at all times, after all.
 
Alexa has been tracking website metrics for years. Typical big and stagnant corporations creating something that nobody wants/needs.
 
Nielsen needs to go back to black and white television.

They are irrelevant.

Facebook uses likes, twitter followers, and youtube has a counter.....gee I can look it up myself.
 
They will rate Adobe products next to other STDs... and guess who will win?
 
It is about time that they actually tried. What they really need to do is partner with Hulu, Netflix, and Amazon though.
