Networked Blogs

Ok, so you created your blog, but now how do you get people to follow it? I recently stumbled upon a cool site where you can view top blogs or blogs by topic and submit your blog to their list.  The site is Networked Blogs. But the really great thing about it is that every time you publish a new post, it is sent out to your Facebook or Twitter audience. That's a good way to bring your community in to read about your area of interest.

You can see a thumbnail of each top blog by topic, region or company, such as Apple, Yahoo!, Dell and Verizon. For instance, 22 employees of Apple follow the blog "Lifehacker" with 80,669 followers globally. Wired News has a total of 88,998 followers including 16 Apple employees.

Design Musings has a long way to grow. I'm hoping Networked Blogs will help me get to the 2 digit numbers!
