Yes, exactly. That's why I think you must add multiple facets to a
radioactivity algorithm and tune it so that page views are not as
important as other things like number of comments, and node creation.

You can also create multiple radioactivity profiles so new visitors
can see "most popular content" (i.e. heavily weight the number of node
views) and returning users can see "most interesting content this
week" (i.e. based on the number of comments or votes, with a strong
added energy for node creation and with a half-life of 3 days).

Regards,
Greg
