SXSW: The Rise of the Blogebrity
As promised, we’ve posted the presentation materials from yesterday’s panel at SXSW:
- The Rise of the Blogebrity
- Totally Screwed Popularity Metrics (prepared by Henry Copeland)
Also wanted to take a moment to thank all of our fine panelists — Nick, Amanda, Henry, Karina & Casey. What started as a bit of a PowerPoint-induced mess (f-ing scroll lock) turned into a rather spirited debate on how we measure notoriety in the blog world — be it page views, inbound links, WHO those inbound links come from, RSS views & downloads, PageRank, or just good ol’ cash money.
Thanks also to everyone who participated. Please don’t hesitate to continue the discussion, be it in the comments of this post, via email, or on your own blogs. And for those of you who couldn’t be there — either due to rain, a panel you thought would be better, or just b/c you weren’t in Austin at all — never fear, a podcast of the panel will be live shortly, and we’ll be sure to post the link just as soon as it does.

Love the info from the SXSW. Where is the line that you guys used to have on the blog that said something like
(but not exactly) “Beg Us to Call You Cool”. I loved that line.
PS-I emailed but my blog url has changed and I so want to be sure that I am not dropped from the cool B list.
When you have a blog called “White Trash” there aren’t that many chances to be cool. Thanks.
