Blog Feed Dependencies

I would like to start an experiment and invite my ten most read blogs to take part in it. What I want to create is a blog feed dependency list which shows the top ten read blogs of all participating blogs. I start this by pinging and notifying the ten blogs that I read the most asking them to do the same.

They can send me their list by writing an article on their blog and sending a trackback to mine or contacting me directly through email or commenting in this article. For the sake of reaching a lot of blogs it would be much better if you would write an article in your blog about this and trackback to my blog. If possible, notify the mentioned webmasters of your choice as well so that the ball keeps rolling all the time.

Since the structure of the blogosphere is merely interesting to webmasters I want to make it worthwhile for the readers as well.

All participating blogs will be mentioned here at Ghacks and hopefully at the other blogs as well giving all readers an opportunity to discover related blogs. I will compile a map of all participating blogs.

To start, I name my ten most read feeds. If you are a webmaster and would like to participate just write an article and trackback this article so that I know where to look and gather your ten blogs.

The blogs that I read the most in alphabetical order:

Connected Internet
Cybernet News
Digital Alchemy
Digital Inspiration
Donation Coder
Download Squad
Freeware Genius
Lifehacker
Make Use Of
Raymond

If you want to create a map like I did use the free online service Bubbl.us

   Hey,

   I would love to join in :) ,

   But how do I ‘trackback’ something from my blog to yours?

   Thanks,

   Neil

   just write an article, mention this url in it. That pings my blog. Setting a trackback would require you to add my trackback url to the trackback form of your blog.
