Fairly decent week for the Top 25. Converstations just shows no signs of slowing down, and will be within shouting distance of the Top 6 in a couple more weeks at this rate. Drew's Marketing Minute had another solid week, and Church of the Customer jumps back up again. Notice that it now takes an Alexa ranking of at least 151K to make the Top 20.

Influential Interactive Marketing is the week's lone new entry, and makes a huge debut at #11.

Next update is next Wednesday.

Hay Garden, I remashed the 2000 Blogger meme, it mutated to my site as a 150 z list.

Hey Mack,

You taunt us with your list! Allen and I have now agreed to become obsessed with getting on your Top 25. In fact, we've agreed that once we get on your Top 25, we'll FINALLY take our long-postponed trip to Montreal, within 21 days of making The List, come heck or high water! (Who knows, maybe I'll sneak in my long-overdue massage, too!)

Thanks for bringing purpose into our lives. :)

Onward and upward!

Male bloggers: Send cash.

Female bloggers: Send pic.

seriously.

Would like to know how you measure, maybe learning can be applied to other leaders in other groups.

The 'guts' of the rankings comes from Alexa. Nothing fancy, that's it. If you're wanting to know where your blog ranks, go to www.alexa.com and you can see what your ranking is.

Other than that, I will include a blog IF it has a high enough Alexa ranking, and I feel that it focuses mainly on marketing, and it's content is 'consistent' with the rest of the Top 25. For example, Micro Persuasion frequently covers marketing issues, but its format is more of a 'news aggregator' type, and Steve covers many other areas besides marketing. So I chose not to include MP.

But the subjective part is whether or not to include the blog, the actual ranking is done by Alexa.
