\"Where<\/a>I was digging around on PostRank<\/a> after reading a great post on the PostRank Newsroom<\/a> by my favorite Vice President of a Blog, Marshall Kirkpatrick<\/a>. And that digging lead me to a little gem: the list of the top blogs in Portland, Oregon<\/a>.<\/p>\n

So who’s currently in the top 20? I’m glad you asked.<\/p>\n

Here’s how the top 20 blogs in Portland are looking this week:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. KATU<\/a> <\/li>\n
  2. Jack Bog’s Blog<\/a> <\/li>\n
  3. Blazers Blog – OregonLive.com<\/a> <\/li>\n
  4. KGW.com Local News<\/a> <\/li>\n
  5. Our PDX<\/a> <\/li>\n
  6. The Portland Tribune – News<\/a> <\/li>\n
  7. Dave Knows: Portland<\/a> <\/li>\n
  8. PORTLAND NEWS – Google Blog Search<\/a> <\/li>\n
  9. Trail Post – A Portland Trail…<\/a> <\/li>\n
  10. Around the Sun<\/a> <\/li>\n
  11. msnbc.com: KGW<\/a> <\/li>\n
  12. Portland Transport<\/a> <\/li>\n
  13. Front Porch – Portland Real Estate<\/a> <\/li>\n
  14. KATU – Sports – Local Sports<\/a> <\/li>\n
  15. Portland Acupuncture Blog<\/a> <\/li>\n
  16. Asheville NC concerts<\/a> [WTF?] <\/li>\n
  17. Portland News<\/a> <\/li>\n
  18. About.com Portland, OR<\/a> <\/li>\n
  19. Metroblogging Portland<\/a> <\/li>\n
  20. The Portland Tribune – Jaynes<\/a> <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Wait a second. Those are actually feeds. (But I knew if I put “feeds” in the headline you probably wouldn’t read this.) So let’s whittle down the list to actual blogs:<\/p>\n

    <\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Jack Bog’s Blog<\/a> <\/li>\n
    2. Blazers Blog – OregonLive.com<\/a> <\/li>\n
    3. Our PDX<\/a> <\/li>\n
    4. Dave Knows: Portland<\/a> <\/li>\n
    5. Trail Post<\/a> <\/li>\n
    6. Around the Sun<\/a> <\/li>\n
    7. Portland Transport<\/a> <\/li>\n
    8. Front Porch – Portland Real Estate<\/a> <\/li>\n
    9. Portland Acupuncture Blog<\/a> <\/li>\n
    10. Metroblogging Portland<\/a> <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Okay. So that’s more like it.<\/p>\n

      But then again. No offense to those on the list, but for as vibrant of a blogging community as we have—I mean, here’s a smattering of Portland WordPress blogs<\/a>, alone—that’s a pretty damned anemic list.<\/p>\n

      So I’m going to go import an OPML file from my feed reader<\/a> and start tagging those feeds appropriately. If you’re interested in seeing a more representative list of Portland (or any other Oregon or Silicon Forest) blogs on here, I’d suggest you do the same.<\/p>\n

      It would be really nice to see some more of those awesome Portland blogs I know and love making the list.<\/p>\n
