Re: Most influential blogs

**E* L* <e*@yahoo.com>**

Hi Suzi,

When you're a blogger, you read many, many other blogs. That's how we support each other. It's kind of like this listserv. We're a community.

Now, according to my Google Reader, I am trying to follow over 100 blogs! I do read a post from each of them about once a week, though I don't always comment.

I have my favorites, but I think it's more because I have gotten to know the personalities behind the blogs more than because I feel they are influential.

Hope that helps.

Eliz.
