How does the Propeller home page work?
The home page is programmed by the Propeller community. Our development staff has created algorithms that measure all sorts of participation, including the number of votes (or “props”), page views, and comments. Stir in a few more variables, and you get a Propeller Popularity Index for the story. The top-scoring stories make it to the front page – and of course those stories will keep changing, 24 hours a day.
