Guardian Picks Their List Of The World's Most "Powerful" Blogs

England's popular website for the Guardian newspaper has listed the world's most "powerful" blogs. The article is here.

The Guardian's criteria appear to be somewhat suspect given some of the blogs on this odd listing which include in the top 10 blogs Beppe Grillo and icanhascheezburger. Hugely popular LOLcats of icanhascheezburger aside, it's seems very hard to make the case that this blog has a lot of "power". Drudge Report or Daily Kos are a lot more likely to influence or even change the world leadership situation, yet they are far down on this list, and arguably many of the very popular tech blogs, like Scobleizer, influence business and culture quite a bit, albeit somewhat indirectly.

The Guardian places the Huffington Post as the most powerful blog in the world with BoingBoing.net as number two and TechCrunch as number three.
