New top ten list has News.com as #9

According to BlogPulse, part of Intelliseek, News.com is #9 in the list of most cited sources in the blogosphere. That’s nice to see. BlogPulse.com Detects Shift in Top Personalities, Blogs, News Sources Cited by Bloggers. On the list there’s one portal (Yahoo News, at the top), five newspapers (led by NYT), three television stations (led by CNN), and News.com. Many thanks to the readers and bloggers who find the site link-worthy. Until vote links prove the real situation, I’ll trust that most of these links are because the news satisfied readers’ needs. Feedback is always welcome

I didn’t catch the press release until this evening, hours after the fact. Thanks, Simon Waldman… follow Simon via Newsburst if you don’t go direct.

On a related note: perhaps it’s impolite of me to do this publicly, but I’ve asked privately more than once. It’s about time David Sifry corrected his March 17 blog post and the accompanying graphic. I have it from Technorati directly that News.com actually should have been on this list, at #11, between BoingBoing and Instapundit. Check the numbers for yourself. As I type this, it’s 21,938 links from 10,586 sources.
