Looks like it should have been titled “most overexposed”!!!

Overexposure is fine if the traffic is aimed your way!

I’m curious what measurement they’re using for determining “best” in this case?
1. Number of unique users?
2. Hits or time reading?
3. Linked or recommended?
4. Quoted or shown as a resource?
5. Breaking news? In-depth analysis?
6. Considered “accurate” (whatever that means)
7. Gets the most buzz and PR?
I’d question the list a bit, because from my definition of best (most meaningful to the target market, that engages and moves the needle) some of these are a little weak.

Dick: I think it’s just one author’s list. Nothing more.
I do not the measure of how they claim this blog is one of the best although if you look at technorati, google, or any comment about this guy and you will see he is one of the best.
My sincerely congratulations.
Next year I hope some of the guys work as hard and as smart to be on top and do not complain.

@6 Most ALL the choices are appalling. Not sure what criteria the author used, but it certainly wasn’t quality of content.

I’m not even sure I’d count some of them as business blogs. Tescopoly is more a rant against Tesco’s than anything else.
