WAC? -- One of the Top 100 Most Informative Blogs
That's the word from a recent study by researchers at the Carnegie Mellon University School of Computer Science. From the authors:
Our goal is to select a small set of blogs...which "catch" as many...stories...as possible. A naive, intuitive solution would be to select the big, well-known blogs. However, these usually have a large number of posts, and are time-consuming to read. We show, that, perhaps counterintuitively, a more cost-effective solution can be obtained, by reading smaller, but higher quality, blogs, which our algorithm can find.
Details about the study are here. The full list is here.
