Brad DeLong writes in his support of his heretofore dormant plan to subvert the dominant Internet Link Hierarchy.

Here are his old posts on this subject:

1. Resist the Oppressive Dominant Internet Hierarchy Through Link Sluttage!


2. On the Impact on Web Quality of Positive-Feedback Linking Practices


3. Subvert the Dominant Internet Link Hierarchy!

He then offers his own fine, fine, choices in line with this nefarious scheme.

Allow me to contribute my own ideosyncratic list of ten blogs--among many--that deserve greater recognition.

In no particular order:

• Brad Plumer


• Worldchanging


• Needlenose


• Iraqi Letter to America and its companion site A Glimpse of Iraq


• Whirled View


• Kuwait Unplugged


• Green Car Congress


• Saudi Jeans


• Total Information Awareness


• And of course, no list of vital blogs would be complete without Baghdad Girl.

For those of you who don't follow doings in Asia closely but want to keep abreast of goings on, the best place I've found by far is Simon World's twice-weekly roundup of Asia blogs (and blogs writing about things Asian). He selects posts with lots of good insight on newsworthy events and cultural trends with lots of color and wit as well. Highly entertaining and extremely informative all in one. Yum!

The Chef's Uyghur article is featured in the newest installment of Asia by Blog. Check both out.

And to all Simon World readers, welcome to chez Nadezhda.
