WCBSTV - NY: This Is Good To See

This isn't CBS network, it's WCBS-TV 2 in New York. They've launched a blog watch page. It has some solid links that to me reveal a genuine desire to actually engage the broader blogosphere as many of us know it everyday. It isn't just Politico, or the large media blogs for a change.

The 21st Century has seen the rise of an increasingly powerful political force, one whose influence stems from its diversity of opinions and experiences.

The Blogosphere is a virtual community of millions of web logs - websites run by everyday people from around the world, posting their opinions on a litany of topics online.

Of course you'd like it, since you're featured.

Good deal.

Someone needs to get the script that jedreport.com uses for their 'On the Wires' section. If someone made a sight with that script that showed both left and right leaning blogs, I'd be grateful.

"since you're featured."

I was???? ha ha

Of course. They are probably emailing all the blogs they have linked today, as they did me, to promote the feature. It's pretty standard practice and makes sense. That said, what I said about it is my honest impression of it from my visit.

I saw you made the 100 most something blogs. I forget. Was it most read, most influential?

[Dan Riehl]

I think you mean the wikio ratings - most linked, or influential - perhaps meaning the same thing, I think. The link and live list is on the bottom, right sidebar of the blog.
