Valuable Content - Views and Social Signals

I just saw two posts by a couple of the nicest people out there:

Both posts look at page views of posts and use that as a proxy for what is good / interesting / valuable.

I've talked about the questionable nature of page views vs. other signals in posts such as: An Aha Moment - del.icio.us as Indicator of Valuable Content - Importantly My Content

Since my aha moment, I've always been skeptical of using page views. However, I've also come to realize that there are some limits with each different kind of social signal (e.g., delicious links, click throughs, page views, time on page, etc.).

Because both Nancy and Bill contribute to the Communities and Networks Connection and both have the keyword widget installed, I was able to see ...

Nancy's top ten posts for Q1 according to various social signals were:
  1. Tom Vander Wall Nails My Sharepoint Experience- Full Circle, March 23, 2009
