Back in Reality 
| | There are five more related stories, mostly about the 'sphere's caste system. |
| | There's this one on "Linkology", showing the Top 50 blogs, and how they interlink to each other. Think of those links as votes in an endless global popularity poll. Many blogs vote for each other: "blogrolling." (And who was first to use that term, back in '00 or so?) |
| | I just scanned the rest, hoping I wouldn't be mentioned. Alas, there's this: |
| | "You think the A-list is the A-list is the A-list," says David Sifry, the CEO of Technorati. "But I'm telling you, boy, does it shift — and does it shift fast." Cultural winds can drive blogs in and out of favor: When Sifry founded Technorati in 2002, many of the bloggers on his top-100-most-linked list were computer geeks, such as journalist Doc Searls and programmer Dave Winer. But as blogging grew to encompass politics and pop culture, Searls dropped to No. 96 and Winer to No. 126. |
| | But now Dave's back up to #100. I'm at #93 (same as my age or IQ, I forget which). Maybe I can thank all this gatekeeper bullshit. Speaking of which, dig the little slider for gating the results. Works pretty well. And you know what's cool? Some of the most interesting results come up with "any" or "a little" authority. Scoble: Well, it's up to you now! You're the gatekeeper! (Yes, I know it's more complicated than that. But I'm in a hurry to leave.) |
| | Anyway, New York, enjoy the snow, dudes. It hit 81 degrees here today. The kid and I are going out to the pool to have some fun. |
Light weather
That's legal in Texas, right?
| | There is actually a story in the New York Times with this line: Mr. Cheney, a practiced hunter, shot the lawyer, Harry Whittington, on an outing at the Armstrong Ranch in South Texas. |
