Did you hear that thud? That was my head hitting the desk when I stumbled upon xRank. Microsoft has launched xRank into Beta recently. xRank is a celebrity search engine that shows the volume of search activity on celebrities.

So here is my spin.
A young professional knows how to create online buzz for celebrities. This happens on fan sites, MySpace, FaceBook, wherever, and virtually everywhere conversation happens. He / she is solely measured by the gain and the sustainability of the placement on xRank. The downfall to this job is you have to make deals with the filth that is Hollywood. The upside - wealth! This symbiotic business relationship could siphon of loads of cash from the celebrities that are lacking the skills required to own this space.

My advice - go get that money, Microsoft opened a new market just for you!
