I noted the surge of webloggers linking to KPMG following a controversial letter. This incident illustrates the early blogosphere's ability to coordinate attention and respond to corporate legal actions through decentralized, collective link-sharing.
I examine KPMG's unusual requirement for formal permission to link to their website. Finding the policy absurd, I wonder if I should retroactively ask for approval for links I might have already published on my site.

I'm sharing The Guardian's 2002 list of favorite blogs, which features Satish’s Random Thoughts. It provides a unique snapshot of the early blogosphere and the personal sites that first caught the attention of mainstream media outlets.
I share Feedster's monthly list of the top 500 most influential blogs, a curated resource for discovering new voices, trending topics, and popular RSS feeds across the evolving blogosphere.
