[TallBill]

Great, a big list of fucking losers who I've never heard of that all make way more money then me.

 

[roid450]

Thats probably my problem too.

Three, one's an old fart tech reporter, one's a political hack, and the third is a piss ant self-anointed guru who believes his every utterance should be considered a new ISO standard.

 

[coldmeat]

I've never heard of a single one of those people. Seriously.

I'm pretty sure I know who 1 and 2 are, who is the third?

True. I'm not sure why I joined, but I rarely venture out of OT.

Also, I don't read any blogs, and almost all those people are bloggers.

 

[dighn]

Recognized the last guy only because of the show he used to host. I'm not really interested in the people.

 

[nerp]

People still read scoble? wow.

My first thought as well. Web designers are no different from ordinary people, 99% are idiots.

No I'm quite sure it is intentional, not for ease-of-use but for ad revenue. Forbes constantly does these stupid lists and designs them in this way so they get 15-30 hits from users rather than just one.

[Fenixgoon]

the only actual person i knew of was dredge.

i've heard of digg/gizmodo/perez but i rarely visit them

 

[SlitheryDee]

Not a single one. The name Dvorak rings a faint bell, but I think a character in a Sci-Fi book I read had that name.

 

[Wreckem]

Ive heard of 10 of them.

 

[Martin]

I know 15 of them, and I have a pretty low opinion of most of them, most notably douchebag Calacanis.

 

[Squisher]

As far as celeb status, I think I would give a couple of regular Youtube contributors more acknowledgment than some on that list.

Like Bo Burnham.

 

[ultimatebob]

I've heard of a lot of these people, thanks to TWiT:

3Kevin Rose
5Cory Doctorow
9Guy Kawasaki
10Jason Calacanis
11Robert Scoble
13Jeff Jarvis
14Wil Wheaton
17Matt Drudge - TwIT doesn't get credit for this one
21Brian Lam
24John C. Dvorak - this guy is a total tool
25Leo Laporte

Come on... you're a web designer... you of all people should know that site has a lousy design, and that it was built that way to generate as many page views as possible.
