“The Social Countdown is a new spin on a traditional concept
that’s been used in radio for decades,” said Paul Driscoll, Director of
Operations and Program Development at RadioBDC. “We have the smartest and most
tech-savvy listeners in the city, we trust them and their feedback is vital to
us. The Social Countdown is another way for their voices to be heard, and it
legitimizes the way radio countdowns are done for the first time.”
The Social Countdown reflects not only the voice of the
listeners, but also what people are talking about on social media, weighing
each source against the others and allowing for differences in influence
hierarchy. Pointslocal’s charting platform gathers and ranks data from social
media and music sites such as Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, Last.fm and Spotify,
along with up-voting on Boston.com.
