Is it an exhaustive list? Are there all the blogs talking about VoIP? Nice ranking, but I’ve got a dumb question. Is it an exhaustive list? Are there all the blogs talking about VoIP?

Secondly, tha juice calculator isnt really checking for VOIP blogger and pretty generic, so the results are way-off sometimes. Another point is that calculator isnt working anymore atleast on my PC :P will try again later. My technorati rankings just disappeared after i move to feedburner auto-discovery. I have sent numerous emails..but heck technorati seems to have banned me or something or they need bribe to fix those issues.. Neverthless, whenever you get some time do visit: http://voipguides.blogspot.com Alec,

After finding out the information I wanted to know about the Blackberry blogging world, I next applied it to the VoIP blogging world.” [...] [...] Thank you Alec Saunders for ranking us at #62 on your “Ultimate VoIP Bloggers” rankings!  From Alec’s blog, “Because we’re gearing up to release our iotum Blackberry applet, I’ve been interested in knowing who the influential Blackberry bloggers are out there.  Some I knew already, but others were folks I hadn’t been aware of.  Anyway, I’ve recently discovered the Text-Link-Ads Juice Calculator, again. It’s a great way to figure out who’s participating in the conversation that is the blogosphere… who’s linking who, who has the traffic, and so on.  The Juice calculator assigns a score from zero to ten, based on a weighted combination of Bloglines subscribers, Alexa rank, Technorati rank, and links in (via Technorati).

We're very pleased over at ETel to have ranked so highly in this list after our relatively short time in existence, and are humbled to be in the same ballpark as sites like yours, Andy's, Jeff's, etc. I do feel compelled to point out, as some others have already, that it's very difficult to do an apples-to-apples comparison of these kind of things. On ETel we have a whole crew of expert bloggers and also publish technical articles, so it's a little unfair to group us in with sites like yours or Andy Abramson's, where you guys single-handedly post every thing that goes up on your sites. I think it's very clear that the truly indivudual blogs that rank highly on this list are the real workhorses in this space.

Blogging is less of a personal conversation, social medium, or form of personal expression for those sites as it is business as usual. I guess they are in the business of blogging, while most of the rest of us have "day jobs". While blogging certainly helps what we do "during the day" it is not our primary focus and thus it can be expected that the independant will always rank lower then those writing for media organizations. With that I have a few ideas how to really blow the top off of the top voip blogger conversation! I will drop you both a line, offline - Garrett I agree with you Andy that it is much tougher as an “independant” to garner traffic, links, praise, etc.
