Break time for food related posts. Being new in the blogging world, I’m giving my share in the The Top 10 Emerging Influential Blogs in 2008
 organized by Ms. Janette Toral for the 2nd year.

As much as I would like to nominate my own publicized blogs Travel-Tayo & Something Sweet & More, I decided not to do so. =)

Anyway, my Top 10 3 Emerging Influential Blogs in 2008 are:
Manila Foodistas
http://manilafoodistas.blogspot.com

Music Picks ni Ed Arevalo
http://blog.edarevalo.net

Filipino Voices
http://www.filipinovoices.com

These are so far my votes, I have yet to read more blogs and decide…hopefully maka-abot sa cut-off date. =)

And here goes the next 7 to complete my list. The major criteria I personally used in coming up with the list are

  • Influential Aspect – its ability to impact upon its readers
  • Content – relevance of content
  • Maintained – more or less regular posting
  • Focus – has focus on a chosen niche

04 You Got Tech

05 The NOT So Talented Mr. Montano?

06 Build That Geek

07 AmongEd.Org

08 Mar Roxas for President in 2010

09 Lakwatsero
http://www.lakwatsero.com
10 Davao Delicious
http://www.davaodeli.com/

I’d usually go primarily for content (reason why #4 is there), but since this is mainly about being “influential”, #5 has a lot of this; although I’m not necessarily a fan of it. #6 may not be influential ‘yet’, but at age 16, this one has got a great potential.

Political blogs are naturally influential especially if the subject is controversial. These two covered the other criteria quite well earning them the 7th & 8th position. #9 & #10 capped it off being related to my blog-loves, travel and food. They’re influential in their own rites. =)
