Blog readability

Happy New Year!

The following website claims to be able to evaluate the level of education required to read your blog. It says mine requires a high school education. I’m not sure if I should be proud or embarrassed. Do I simply have a reader-friendly style, or am I incapable of writing at a university level despite my…ahem…hard work at university?

That’s at least better than the result I’m getting, which is “We were unable to check the URL you entered.” :(

Good to have you back, brother.

Hehe - I would say that is a good thing.
I, sadly, require a genius to understand me ;)
I’m not sure that is entirely accurate - but I do try and get a little deeper in my posts :)

Who’s to say you’re not a genius, Mulled Vine? :)

All depends if he’s got a rather messy desk. ;)

As it happens I do have a messy desk, but given that mulleddiary is essentially photos… I think the algorithm might be flawed. Perhaps they’ve taken the “a picture paints a thousand words” saying too literally! :-D

If it makes you feel any better Casey, I think Mulled Vine is right and that the algorithm is a bit suspect… I know it doesn’t check your whole blog and basically bases the rating on what’s on your main page. I ran mine through every day for a couple of weeks a while back just out of curiosity. I got everything from grade-school to genius, depending on what was up on the main page. I’m currently getting a Jr. High rating. It takes a real dive when I have a post up in ‘Jacqui-speak’. You’re a genius in my book ; )

P.S. Stick a couple haiku poems on your main page… you’ll be a genius in no time!
