Most Wired Blogs of the Wonkosphere

by WonkoSteve

A common measure of blog prominence is “inlinks” or the number of times a blog is pointed-to by other blogs via their blogrolls.  It is usually taken as a sign of respect or popularity if a particular blog is linked by lots of others.  I have calculated, for your viewing enjoyment, the top 10 blogs in each classification in the Wonkosphere Directory.

Here are the results.  The number of inlinks shown in parentheses is from other blogs in the Wonkosphere directory (not from other blogs everywhere). The blog names are linked to the blogs.
