Speaking of the
Observer, a few weeks ago they ran a feature entitled
"The 50 Most Powerful
Blogs".
It featured mostly the influential American
political sites like Huffington Post, Talking
Points Memo, etc; as well as the gossipy ones like
Perez Hilton and Gawker.
But up there at No 8 was none other than "I Can Has Cheezburger?", the world-famous Lolcat site. Now I can understand it being in a list of popular sites, or it being recognised as an internet publishing phenomenon, but as a "powerful blog"?
If by powerful, you mean ability to set the narrative or break a story of national or international importance, then ICHC is anything but.
