Comments for Top Influencer Lists: Do We Need Them? at http://www.rceuro.com , comment 1 to 1 out of 1 comments http://www.rceuro.com Sat, 18 May 2013 11:11:57 +0100 FeedCreator 1.7.2 http://www.rceuro.com/index.php?option=com_myblog&show=Top-Influencer-Lists-Do-We-Need-Them-.html&Itemid=90#comment-37 Hi Margo This is a passionate and analytical approach to the 'world of lists' From David Letterman's top 10 ..... to the most recent top 25 or top 100 recruiters or influencers, to the top 10 basketball/football.... whatever players of the decade/century, we are all interested - and we know they are the personal opinion of the creator of the list - or of the body of individuals that have been surveyed. What is different about some of the newer lists? They are being automatically generated by measuring 'reach', which is redefined as influence. If you can Tweet, video blog, post photos and write in multiple blogs, then you have this reach. If you are not as multi-faceted in your public discussions or writing, you have less reach. This is not to say that the reach is not relevant, just that it needs to be taken with a grain of salt. Thanks for starting this debate. Alan - Alan Whitford Mon, 22 Feb 2010 15:36:11 +0100
