Abstract: Technologies are described herein for determining popularity of an individual. A popularity profiling server is used to receive information of the individual, analyze a quantitative data portion of the information, and analyze a qualitative data portion of the information using sentiment analysis. The sentiment analysis uses natural language parsing to separate the qualitative data into parts of speech. The popularity profiling server calculates an initial set of scores for the popularity of the individual based on the analysis of the quantitative data portion and the qualitative data portion of the information, update a ranking for the popularity of the individual in a database, and determine, after waiting a predetermined amount of time, if new data has been updated to the information on the information server. If new information has been updated, an updated set of scores are calculated.
