Buzzzz...
Geoff Livingston was crazy kind enough to ask me to be one of his victims interviewees over at the Buzz Bin. Check it out.
A week or so ago, Kami Huyse took Todd And's (and now Advertising Age's) 150 list and pulled out the women bloggers, pointing out that we make up only 13% of the top-ranked marketing/PR bloggers, which was surprising to her given how many women are in the profession.
As readers here know, I'm not crazy about rank-ordered lists, for a lot of reasons. So, I was pleased when this week, the meme took a turn and people started adding new or overlooked women bloggers to the list. And someone, bless her and apologies for not remembering who at this point, converted it to alpha order. When I have a few moments, I will definitely make some additions.
Coming soon: some thoughts on paid blogging inspired by the conversations at and post-BlogHer. And more on the SciFi network digital media tour earlier this summer.

Susan:
I'm the misguided woman who started the list and Krishna De at BizGrowth News was the person responsible to putting in in alpha order. Nice to meet you ;-)
Valeria -- thanks for dropping by.
One thing that does concern me about this list is that as it grows, it is losing focus. Originally about pr/marketing bloggers, I noticed a number of blogs (like dooce) that while wonderful and written by women, aren't about marketing and PR. That tends to make the list less generally useful as a reference, although great for the linky love.
BlogHer, at www.blogher.org, lists thousands of women bloggers by category. All women bloggers should make sure their blogs are listed there.
Thanks for being a graceful and brilliant hostage! Seriously, you had some great insights. Thank you. Off to find my next victim ;)
