My 50 most relevant profiles on Google+ and around Google

Here's information about where the data comes from:

Relevance score is a number calculated by Google+ itself, based on the interactions between you and people in your circles across various Google products.

These interactions could even be sending and receiving emails via gmail, having chat or hangout, plussing, resharing, commenting on google+, etc.

Currently, there're no official material on the subject but you can search the circloscope community for "score" in order to see some good discussion and read various observations on the subject, between power circloscope users :-)

How to get yours:

Buy Circloscope Premium!

Step 1:
Head over to www.circloscope.com and install the latest version of Circloscope Premium on your Chrome browser.

Step 2:
Open Circloscope by clicking on the icon on your chrome toolbar. And go to "Action > Visualize > 50 Most Relevant".

Step 3:
Take a screenshot of your 50 most relevant people and edit the photo as you like :-)

Step 4 (optional):
You can notify them as well using circloscope by:
1- Filter > Sort By > Relevance (Z-a)
2- Select the first 50 thumbnails by mouse dragging
3- Action > Export Selected > to TXT
4- Open the resulting file and copy-paste Google+ ids to your post.

Step 5:
Publish the post with these instructions, your 50 most relevant photo, the notifications (optional) and this hashtag  

It's nice to be engaging with you all, either on business or pleasure.
With quite a few I have mostly email or Hangout interactions for business, but they still show up here.
Here is my original post with +mentions so you can add people.
