Is an 'H-value' A Useful Measure Of A Blog's Internationalism?
A scientist has index h if h. of [his/her] Np papers have at least h citations each, and the other (Np − h) papers have at most h citations each.
Of course this general measure can be applied to any ranked distribution - whether it means anything is another matter, but it is quite a useful measure for a bunch of things (for example to measure the 'impact' of a drug, 'adoption' of some software, etc. on the scientific literature, given the correct input data).
Another way of applying this statistic could be in the context of measuring the 'internationalism' of a blog, for example, The Chembl-og. Well, the blog's H-current H-value is 40 (using the flagcounter.com stats); it would be nice to have a few more visitors from China or Iran....
