41 more comments
50 bloggers X 10000 twitter following requests.. twitter will be down soon :):) - Naor
Somebody make sure Playboy doesn't see that list. - Eric Schlissel via twhirl
Boo...No Sarah Perez or Corvida. But congrats to the ones I do follow: Veronica Belmont, Gina Trapani, Emily Chang, Leah Culver, & Justine Ezarik. - Mark Krynsky
There's always a few missing on these lists (especially niche bloggers including the above ... Ann Smarty, and Shana Albert) but this is an incredibly good list (with descriptions). Well worth exploring! - Charlie Anzman
Ditto Mark, plus congrats to our Tamar, and Amber MacArthur as well (fan of her stuff as well) - finally a list of females in tech and blogging that doesn't involve "sexiest" or "nakedest." - Mark "Rizzn" Hopkins
no Perez Hilton? - Jamie
LOL - Mark "Rizzn" Hopkins
I added my mom in the comments: http://mymomsblog.blogspot.com... - Steve Garfield via twhirl
congrats veronica.... #33, 32.... top 10 soon? already topping twitter's right? - Pajama Domain
good list - sent to my blogger wife :) - mike "glemak" dunn
Could Perez Hilton handle all 140 characters? like, that's a lot! - Herb Myers
This was a great list. Added a few new blogs to Google Reader. - Sean Brady
What... no Cordiva? :-) - Andrew Dobrow
No Natali Del Conte either. Seems more like a "Female Bloggers Influential To Other Females" list. Not so much a list of bloggers that have appeal to men and women, except for some like Gina, Veronica, Cali, etc. - Jim Bergman
Well Female bloggers usually gets 'popularity' faster...but nice list. - Saad Kamal
I'm shallow… I only clicked on the hot ones. - Vincent van Wylick
hey where's SarahinTampa, Cordiva, Cyndy or Svetlana? - update list please! ;-) - Susan Beebe
I love your picture for this article. It looks fun. - tarraguna via twhirl
I'm just happy its up for discussion. - Erin Kotecki Vest
I barely knew anyone on that list. Gonna have to start reading more blogs... - Andy DeSoto
Only heard of 3-4 of them, Veronica included :D but if they are there, it means they deserve it - Dan V via twhirl
I knew about 3/4s of the list and they absolutely deserve it. These are all great bloggers, well worth checking out. - Robert Scoble
Only knew about 1/2 of the list but the ones i saw on that list are there because of merit. Great List...worth checking out. - Nicholas James
congrats Veronica! - Kevin Rose
This reminds me that had I not given up on the first blog I started back in 98, maybe I'd be on this list. But I don't have the drive and passion these very worthy women have! Congrats to you, Veronica and all on the list! More importantly, keep doing what you do, because it is important and valuable. - Shawna Benson
What an impressive list! Quite a few I follow already, but nice to have some more to check out. - Sally Church
ok which one s/we get Playboy to cover ? Remember TC's post of late ? - Peter Dawson
Why does there have to be a separate list for most influential male/female bloggers? Why not just a list for the 50 or 100 most influential bloggers? Why the gender distinction? - Michael Tefft
After posting about the bikinibloggers of Urlesque & the wish for naked bloggers of Playboy at http://www.aboutblank.nl it was worthwile to pay some attention to influential female bloggers. Really influential, I'm talking about. But why do all these American sites pay so much atttention female bloggers, I wonder. So sudden, I mean. - Ton Zijp
whole story is suspect due to claim that blogging pair coined term "fugly" - WTF! :-) - Deva Hazarika
What does it have to do with America, Ton Zijp? - Andy DeSoto
Andy, just that the attention is there so suddenly, in such a way that they all make a list (20 bloggers Urlesque wants to see in bikini, 9 Playboy wants to see naked, 50 really influential according to N x E). I follow news about weblogs worldwide, I publish about it daily, so for me it's really surprising that in just a few days all these sites are concentrating at female bloggers. I don't take conclusions on that, but it really surprises me. July = bikinimonth? Like Urlesque said? - Ton Zijp
I know a few, and have a few others in my rss reader. But this blog post is screaming for an OPML. - Laura Scott via Alert Thingy
The term fugly is as old as beauty (or lack there of) it's self. - Brian Norwood
nice resource, re: formatteddad's comment- as long as there is no bias or exclussion. anything that brings more voices to the conversation- the better! sometimes we need to identify the voices that might not be getting the BIG exposure. - Nice Fish Films
where's corvida? where's corvida? - Sarah Perez
perl helped me to dump a quick opml of the blogs. i won't host it myself. instead this link gives you a netvibes startpage where you can read the blogs and export them to opml: http://is.gd/QH7 - now i'm busy reading. - igor
Congratulations for making the list! - Jeff P. Henderson
@Sarah - I was looking for Corvida too! - Yolanda
Im not a big ijustine fan, but Im glad to see Gina T near the top. - Colby Olson
What about Paige and Gretchen from MommyCast? They deserve to be on the list. - Barry Reicherter via twhirl
You go girls!! But where are the AFRICAN AMERICAN & HISPANIC & INDIA, etc bloggers. A little discriminating, don't ya think? - ChaCha Fance
wait -- no Sarah Perez? or did I miss her? - JungleG

My guess is higher gas taxes - John Stockton
California has higher taxes and also requires a special formulization of gasoline that, at times, creates a little additional pressure on supply. - RAPatton
Does it translate to cleaner air for California? - Alan Le
Yes, Alan. As you drive towards the Nevada border you can see a wall of smog at the state line. It's very impressive. - Ken Sheppardson

Citizen Kane, A Fish Called Wanda, Goodfellas, Girl in the Gold Boots (MST3K version), and 2010. (C'mon... Helen Mirren, Roy Scheider, *and* John Lythgoe?) - Roger Benningfield
Snatch, Garden State, The Empire Strikes Back, Pulp Fiction, The Big Lebowski - James Ferguson
Casablanca and The Thomas Crown Affair (remake w/Brosnan and Russo) are always on my top 5 rewatch list, the other 3 would be some combo of: Shawshank Redemption, Cinema Paradiso, Star Wars, Princess Bride, Raiders of the Lost Ark, Roman Holiday, and To Have and Have Not). Oh, and I can't explain it but The Life Aquatic as bad as it is still draws me in and cracks me up... I probably should see someone about that. - Casey
Five movies I haven't seen before - Bjorn Tipling
I thought I was a film snob, but the first things I thought of were Princess Bride, Dr. Strangelove, Tommy Boy, Fifth Element and Raising Arizona. I guess Strangelove counts. - Jack Baty
Star Wars, Army of Darkness, Princess Bride, Monty Python and the Holy Grail, Raiders of the Lost Ark. (Clerks and Office Space just narrowly miss the cut off). - Eric
awwwwww.. star wars still rocks.. may the force be with da fans !! LOL - Peter Dawson
Loving all the Princess Bride nods :) That, To Have and Have Not, The Lion in Winter, Léon (The Professional), and Roman Holiday. And there are about 30 others I could exchange those with depending on current mood. - Michael W. May
Y Tu Mama Tambien, Hairspray, The Matrix, Elephant, History Boys, off the top of my head. But, good answer Mr Tipling. - Rick Powell

Hmm while I generally enjoy the favorited photos; this batch could have gotten me in trouble at work....granted that's not your problem but something I am going to have to evaluate in terms of using FF at work. - Snay Trivedi
29 more comments
Gah! Hiding this batch because it's NSFW. - Mike Doeff
Lovely. - dkb via Alert Thingy
My most favorite one is "United" - PooMa
I have to remind myself to use the "safe" setting at work so that no one gets surprised if they wander into my office. Actually, I use safe most of the time at home because my son likes to sneak up on me while I have headphones on. - ha3rvey
@Harvey...what "safe" setting? - Snay Trivedi
Did Friendfeed finally lift the ban on "unsafe" photos? Or is this just a coincidence that so many photos weren't marked that way on Flickr? - Eric
#5 looks like Bianca from Lars and the Real Girl. - Anna Haro
Eric, these photos are probably considered "safe" by Flickr. Could be because they simply haven't been "reported" as unsafe by the community yet. Flickr relies on users to voluntarily code their content as "safe" or "unsafe" but then has a button where the community can notify flickr or unsafe. It's very difficult to get feeds of unsafe photos out of Flickr. Censorship runs pretty high over there. - Thomas Hawk
Honestly, I think these might be NSFW in the Vatican, but what's wrong with them out in the real world? - John Samuelson
"Nudity on FriendFeed: What Are Some Sensible Rules?" http://bhc3.wordpress.com/2008... - Hutch Carpenter
Nudity at work? You should be working, not socializing! lol Even the Vatican has nude paintings. Is this like Amerkan thing? No nude? Are Americans ashamed of their own bodies? - Igor The Troll
@Thomas Hawk: That's what I thought. Shame though, I was hoping this meant there was a better policy. @Hutch Carpenter: The world needs less censorship, not more of it. And if FF *did* adopt censorship filters, nudity is pretty low on my list of things I'd want to see censored. First they should get rid of the incessant "Friendfeed's so great" and "What's wrong with Twitter?" discussions, which are much more offensive to my sensibilities as a thinking human being. - Eric
I would rather see FF censor discussions about itself than some fine art nude photos. - William Beem
@Eric - I wrote that post as more of a "we control the nudity" philosophy. You'll see my recommendations are pretty wide open (e.g. please no goatse's). If ever there are filters put in place, they shouldn't be at the content level, they should be something each user controls. - Hutch Carpenter
I'm pretty tired about this NSFW discussion. The content filter was a great invention at flickr, but they don't use it right. There are still unflagged photos - and problems with flagged photos which can't be viewed at all in some countrys. For example here in germany you can't turn the content filter off, but a naked nipple at work wouldn't be a problem - using flickr or friendfeed at work would. For me the only solution is to seperate work from private, and don't use community sites at work. - Hannes Trapp
@Hannes Trapp: I've been telling people that for years. Do your work at work. Too many people feel a sense of entitlement to using their office computers as their own and then get mad at someone else who doesn't have the same limits as they do. - William Beem
It's still outrageous to me that Flickr won't let Germans see nipples on Flickr when you see far more sensual imagery simply on television commercials in Germany. - Thomas Hawk
Hey I want to see Boobs and Bush or I will burn the Internet! LOL - Igor The Troll
I came for the boobies... I stayed for the depth of field. Epic work. - John Worthington
@John classic quote! - John Samuelson

Hide, 'coz it's not safe for dad :) - Yuvi
Yuvi we need to convert your father! ;-) Is he a Priest or something? - Igor The Troll
@Igor: He's just a normal Indian father who wants to *protect* his kids. - Yuvi
You know, that's funny, I wasn't allowed to look at almost anything growing up, and I STILL hide these things on my screen when my parents are over. Habit, I guess. Oh, and there's your answer to why I like looking at women so much, Yuvi. - Donato (ricin)
Try met-art.com's free tour & Look at the magazine-cover-like shots. http://met-art.com Great photographers of female nudes. It's funny what standards are used. In the dance world, I have a "modern dance" friend who has a nude shot of her & her boyfriend on the card. Even in universities, we have nude dance performers. My brother says dance has spoiled him for strip clubs - "not sexy enough". - Mitchell Tsai
Yeah, already have. - Donato (ricin) via twhirl
Hide!, for me too.. - Azeem
love them....excellent shots....and Yuvi dad need not know :) and nor does my boss.... :) - Arjun
Mitchell are you advocating nudity as freedom of expression? Maybe Mitchell was a Sadu in his past life. ;-) Yuvi, I want to come to India, cover my body with Ash and walk through the streets like Sadu does. - Igor The Troll
@Igor, plp rarely do that :) [cover body with ash and walk the street] . U may only see that in very religious cities like Rishikesh :). Yes I beleive nudity with aesthetic sense IS freedom of expression - Arjun

Best Wishes to Bill Gates
June 27 at 2:29 pm - via Bookmarklet - Link
Best Wishes to Bill Gates who retires from Microsoft today. As the wealthiest man in the world Gates serves as a strong example for what the rich ought to do with their wealth. The $37.5 billion that currently sits in the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation to be used for philanthropic efforts is admirable and commendable. Gates serves as a strong example of what other of the wealthy might and could do to make the world a better place. - Thomas Hawk via Bookmarklet

Once Bill created his foundation with Melissa I changed my attitude about him. - Russellreno via NoiseRiver
I second that! Well said. - Scott Kuperus
Hope he put something aside for his retirement. - weblivz via twhirl
The more I've learned about how Gates' views wealth, the more I've grown to respect him. In contrast to the wealthy industrialists of the past, Gates' views about the estate tax and and the role that philanthropy ought to play for the wealthy is a positive force. - Thomas Hawk
I loved the creative capitalism exchange between Buffet and Gates. Did anyone read that?! - Shivanand Velmurugan
I love how the $20,000 flat-screens I first saw in Bill's house in 1998 ten years later are now everywhere in the US (and $100). His efforts have really brought a lot of stuff to the masses. He's a lousy coder, but one hell of a business-person. Bill Gates and Warren Buffet for social entrepreneurship and philanthropy will be a powerful combination. Best of luck to Bill! - ..and will you please friend me back in Facebook? :-) He's got 4 connections on LinkedIn (I know one... wonder who the other 3 are...) - Mitchell Tsai
Viva Bill Gates - Farzad

"I would not advise to disable the feature though unless you are sure what you are doing. The Mozilla team may block plugins and add-ons that are installed on your system using that option. If it is disabled this is not possible." Translation: don't block us from checking in on you, because you're not very smart, and we know what's best for you.

@Tim - If it bothered me, I would turn it off. That isn't my point. If IE phoned home with the same information, people would throw a fit. This isn't going to change my usage of FF, but it's something I think it would have been nice to know during the install process. - Jordan Hofker

Things you never thogut you would see #179 - 'Barack Obama is not subscribed to you' - Andy C
I hope she can get past her own ego enough to focus on her new job. Throughout her campaign it always felt like her motivation to run came from a place of ambition and ego (certainly two necessary qualities in a presidential candidate) but that her focus on the people, problems and challenges was secondary. With Obama, I see a commitment to serving a nation - the right and proper role of a leader. - mel maverick mcbride
There are part of a set called: "Barack and Hillary on their way to Unity, NH, 6/27/08". Mmm... - Rubin Sfadj
Now and weeks before now it is ALL ABOUT THE MONEY. After the odds against Hil went long, the game then was to stay in long enough to coerce BO to help payoff Hil's debts. In the last weeks the game changed. It was no longer the climb to the White House, it was the climb out of debt. Hil wants to be debt free by 2012 so that if BO steps on himself through naive inexperience, she is ready to ride to the rescue. - Frank Derfler
@Frank Her campaign is 22 mil into debt, but that includes a 12 mil loan from HRC herself. - Rubin Sfadj
