Name That Blogger Episode 2: Attack of the Sequel

Well, my first attempt at this game was complete in a matter of minutes. I'm not sure if I should be happy or not :)

So, at the risk of spamming the mainfeed with it again (especially with something so big), I thought I'd run it again with something a little bit harder. This time, you've got a lot more information to work with...but is that such a good thing? Based on this screenshot I was sent, I'm not so sure.

So tell me - who is this blogger? Can you work it out? Your time starts....now.

Pretty shocking huh? 272 feeds (I think)! I thought I was bad, but wow. I think I'm now getting an idea of what Mitch (600 or so) and El Scoble (over 1000) sees in front of themselves everyday. But I think there's enough clues in there to at least lead you in the right direction.

a node called "ANZ DPE"... gotta be either Frank Arrigo, Charles Sterling or Andrew Coates right? I'll say Frank.

Interesting to see how hard it starts to get to maintain lists of this size though isn't it. Note all of the red nodes which probably indicate blogs which haven't existed for some time.

>> Not Me

OK then, my next best guess is Chuck.

Eddie de Bear said:

Is it chuck? Does he subscribe to his own blog?

Geoff Appleby said:

Nope, it's not Chuck. And it's not Andrew Coates. Look into it a little bit further perhaps :)

OK... could it be Greg Low? That's my last guess and then I'll let some others have a turn :-)

Well then you better let someone else have a turn :P

Sorry Mitch, I've only got about a third of that :)

Darren: Go for it.

Mcpollo: Once the winner is known, you can contact that person for it yourself :)

William Luu said:

My guess would be Matthew Cosier...

Geoff Appleby said:

We have a winner!!!! Well done William! :)
# February 26, 2005 5:46 PM

William Luu said:

Wow, that was easy :P

# February 26, 2005 9:22 PM

Matthew Cosier said:

Well done mate. I knew you would be the one to get it.

I'm not as well known as the ones mentioned, so it was harder for most of the community to have a fair stab.

Good stuff!

Matt
