Forbes has just released the Web Celeb 25 - a list of the most influential people on the internet. It includes a wide array celebrities, bloggers, journalists and marketers. Here’s the list:
The Web Celeb 25
1. Jessica Lee Rose
2. Perez Hilton
3. Markos Moulitsas Zúniga
4. Matt Drudge
5. Seth Godin
6. Jeff Jarvis
7. Glenn Reynolds
8. Amanda Congdon
9. Robert Scoble
10. Michael Arrington
11. Hosea Frank
12. Jimmy Wales
13. Harry Knowles
14. Frank Warren
15. Cory Doctorow
16. Xeni Jardin
17. Leo Laporte
18. Merlin Mann
19. John H. Hinderaker
20. Charles Johnson
21. Kevin Sites
22. Mark Lisanti
23. Jason Calacanis

So, who’s missing from the list? I for one believe John Battelle should be on there. And what about Guy Kawasaki or Mark Cuban? Who else do you think should be there?

Odd, I’ve heard of less than half that list, and though I’ve previously subscribed to Scoble and Jeff Jarvis’ blogs, I don’t read any of them now.
I do tend to see bits about Jimmy Wales and Seth Godin in other places, as their writing spreads around, but I don’t see much of the others.
