Blog lists are awesome! Someone emailed us about being #3 on a list of the 10 Most Powerful Women in Blogging from Jack of All Blogs, which was super-flattering but it was clearly a biased list (apparently the writer has partied with our awesome Bostonist and Miamist editors). Anyway, Ana Marie Cox, check; Heather Armstrong, check...but then at number 8, there's...Joi Ito? But, isn't he a guy, just one with a girly name? Damn you, confounding, inscrutable Asian cultures!
In other words, this list is the greatest goof of all time - yowza.
