>From what I've seen, Techmeme [1] seems something of a must-read in the Web 2.0 community (I mentioned it here before as a possible source of influencer's names). The entries that are displayed are sourced from a list of blogs known to be on-topic, with linking (presumably within the source group) providing the ranking. Length of blog post is a factor - longer is better. I'm not suggesting we game the system (like the recent Digg controversy), simply that as and when SWEO has material to release/announce it would probably make sense to coordinate posts on blogs to maximise interlinking & the impact of sync'd publicity. I don't know PR but I assume this is an accepted practice. Techmeme may be worth treating as a rough measure of the impact. I was reminded because a post of Ian's just showed up on Techmeme, see the bottom of [2]. I'm pretty sure I've seen posts from Ian there in the past, Shelley Powers appears regularly. Note that although I linked to Ian's post (and have had things occasionally show at Techmeme in the past) , my one-line quote isn't listed, presumably fell below the length threshold. Everyone here does have a blog, don't they? ;-) Cheers, Danny.
