People

Top people in the Skillenai index. Default sort is “Influence” — a combined score blending author authority and mention volume. Click a column header to sort by Authority or Mentions instead, toggle to “Bloggers” to filter to people with at least one indexed blog post, or search by name.

Scores and counts refresh nightly. Each row links to a per-person detail page with top authored articles and mentions.
