Loren Baker of Search Engine Journal posted yesterday on: 20 Essential Blog Directories to Submit Your Blog To.

At BlogWorld Expo, we found that the easiest way to describe Blogcosm was "a blog directory, but focussed on the top blogs and providing detailed information on each: category, description, rank, associated people and their bios". When some bloggers learned that they couldn't submit their blog to our site or use Blogcosm to promote their blog, they left. That's ok; we have a different target in mind. Our tagline, "a daily reference", attempts to capture two goals: (1) update daily, (2) create a reference of lasting value. Other phrases I've tried: "like a Farmer's Almanac for blogs" or a "World Factbook on the blogosphere".

We've already assembled information that can't be found in once place elsewhere, with lots more on the way. Let us know if you have any specific requests.
