Agreed the sum was largely because of the team but I think it was also because of what they were targeting and their experience in relevant areas, Bill Nguyen at Lala/Apple and Peter Pham at Photobucket.

Thanks! Our intention wasn't to build a sticky web service, but a simple hack that took a few days. We thought it was interesting data to see about ourselves and thought we'd share it with the community. Might it turn into something more? Perhaps, but this is just a simple proof of concept. We know (and like) Programmable Web, but as you said, no simple way to filter about user ID info.

We enjoy simple hacks that people produce that give me a few minutes of fun or some interesting piece of info. We try not to take ourselves too seriously all the time.

I hear you. Would be tough to maintain "objective" results that way, but can put it in the list of possibile features to add. Note that we don't ask for a lot of permissions at all, the minimum necessary to get your ID. We also let you disconnect with one click in your account section. We absolutely hate shady app access and did everything possible to tread lightly, only purpose was to show you the data and make something fun.

I actually wanted to include ICQ! I had an early ID there, although can't find it anymore. Stopped signing in, was just full of SPAM...

There's a comment string below discussing that very point. While not completely linear, there's definitely a somewhat linear path for the IDs, although it's distorted by who was in college when Facebook was college-only. Feel free to join in below with ideas of how to better parse the Facebook IDs.

Did you try clicking it? you might be surprised.

Hahaha, zinged.

edit: The elusive three digit earlynerd.info userid.

Who would have thought? No Oauth for Aol....

Would love feedback on what people think, features to add, etc. Link is at http://earlynerd.info

Facebook's user id system is not linear (although it used to be so on a per-school basis)

Interesting. We had some idea it wasn't totally linear but thought that the numbers (particularly for those that joined after college) had some validity. Do you have any thoughts on how to come up with a better algorithm given Facebook's ID system?

How about Slashdot?

Do they have an API or some way to get the User ID?

Why does the score change?

It appears that the percentages for each site are counted based on the user IDs submitted/gathered, not based on any inference to maximum user ID.

@handler Thanks. We hacked this together pretty quickly and were surprised that nobody had done something like this simply using User IDs. We think it's pretty fun.
