The people at blog vendor Six Apart asked me to make a list of the top 10 blogs about the future of journalism. In alphabetical order:

— Adrian Monck, the head of a UK journalism school and a smart commentator, particularly on the more academic/philosophy-of-journalism side;

— BuzzMachine, Ron Rosenbaum’s favorite blog;

— Content Bridges, the blog of Ken Doctor, for my money the smartest analyst of the business side of the business;

— Eat Sleep Publish, by Jason Preston, a smart advocate for new thinking and opponent of curmudgeons;

— Journerdism, by Will Sullivan, the best aggregator of forward-looking links;

— Mathew Ingram, a perceptive Canadian (and one always needs perceptive Canadians);

— MediaShift, the Knight-funded and PBS-hosted mini-think-tank, admirably hosted by Mark Glaser;

— The Nieman Journalism Lab, which must be a typo;

— Notes from a Teacher, another perceptive Canadian, Mark Hamilton, another great aggregator;

— Teaching Online Journalism, by Mindy McAdams, the preeminent evangelist for multimedia journalism.

Apologies to those who just missed the cut. (And yes, Friendly Blogger, you were No. 11.)
