The Envelope's "Buzzmeter" to launch today
The Buzzmeter at The Envelope has been a somewhat anemic experiment the last two years, offering the opinions of a mere handful of participants. This year, however, under the editorial expertise of Gregory Ellwood and Sheigh Crabtree, the site is taking on a lot more and revamping into something more distinguished on the Oscarweb. This includes a spiffy new direction for the Buzzmeter, inflating the number of participants to over 30, according to administrators. God knows who they've included as "experts," but it's nonetheless set to be the biggest prognosticating collective on the net.
The Buzzmeter will launch later today and should be an interesting foil for Movie City News' "Gurus o' Gold" (which shares some of its participants with the Buzzmeter this year).
Keep a lookout later today for the new launch. Should be interesting to see where the cards fall.
