Who Are the Aussie A-List Bloggers?
If you were to organise a meetup of the A-list bloggers in Australia, who
would you invite? And they can't be journalists who blog. That's a
constraint.
I was posed this challenge last week. To be honest, I struggled to come up
with a decent list.
I'll share the list once it's finalised, but I'll let you into a little
secret - most of the folks are on my blogroll.

That's an interesting question actually. What constitutes an A-List blogger? Me, I really only read tech-blogs, and do tech-blogs really qualify as even in the running to be considered A-List? Our reader market is quite small, after all.Anonymous

Sorry to do this but can I answer your question with a question?
Where is the meet-up? Is it a Sydney only thing, or localised for each State? Does the A-list of Aussies have to be Developers only?Anonymous

One Australian blogger I find myself returning to time and again, because I'm compelled to read him, is Cameron Reilly.

Sure there's plenty of business cross-promotion, but there's a sharp mind and genuineness brought to bear too.Anonymous

of course a key decider of an a-list ranking should be blogshares.com! :-)Anonymous

William, I think you'll find gnoos will fit the bill for an "Aussie Digg".Anonymous

Paul, I heard about gnoos. I thought it was just a blog search engine? (Like Technorati). I could be wrong, since I haven't really looked into gnoos much. And what I did read suggested it was just an Australian blog search engine.
Digg is a bit different. Users submit stories, other users vote on it, the more (positive) votes a story has, the better chance it has of appearing on the main (front) page of digg.com.
So what i'd like to see if, readers see posts they like made by Aussie bloggers (on a wide variety of topics) submit it, assign it a category etc. And then others vote on it. (Ok, this is an oversimplification of the process).
Anyway, if gnoos has this sort of feature included with it, then good! Looking forward to it. If not, it'll still be a good way to browse around the Aussie blogosphere.Anonymous
