Who Are the Aussie A-List Bloggers? If you were to organise a meetup of the A-list bloggers in Australia, who would you invite? And they can’t be journalists who blog. That’s a constraint. I was posed this challenge last week. To be honest, I struggled to come up with a decent list. I’ll share the list once it’s finalised, but I’ll let you into a little secret - most of the folks are on my blogroll.

Me, I really only read tech-blogs, and do tech-blogs really qualify as even in the running to be considered A-List? Our reader market is quite small, after all. Anonymous February 26, 2006 Sorry to do this but can I answer your question with a question? Where is the meet-up?  Is it a Sydney only thing, or localised for each State?  Does the A-list of Aussies have to be Developers only?

Anonymous February 26, 2006 of course a key decider of an a-list ranking should be blogshares.com! :-) Anonymous February 26, 2006 ill put my hand up as an A-list blogger :P Anonymous February 26, 2006 The comment has been removed Anonymous February 26, 2006 The comment has been removed Anonymous February 26, 2006 William, I think you’ll find gnoos will fit the bill for an “Aussie Digg”. Anonymous February 27, 2006 Mike Seyfang over at http://learndog.typepad.com/learndogpup/ get’s my vote. Anonymous February 27, 2006 Paul, I heard about gnoos. I thought it was just a blog search engine? (Like Technorati). I could be wrong, since I haven’t really looked into gnoos much. And what I did read suggested it was just an Australian blog search engine. Digg is a bit different. Users submit stories, other users vote on it, the more (positive) votes a story has, the better chance it has of appearing on the main (front) page of digg.com. So what i’d like to see if, readers see posts they like made by Aussie bloggers (on a wide variety of topics) submit it, assign it a category etc. And then others vote on it. (Ok, this is an oversimplification of the process). Anyway, if gnoos has this sort of feature included with it, then good! Looking forward to it. If not, it’ll still be a good way to browse around the Aussie blogosphere. Anonymous February 27, 2006 Thats tough one.
