The 50 Most Powerful blogs article, gives a brief summary of the 50 most read blogs. It describes what the blog is and what the user posts about, and gives a link for you to access the blog. 

After reading the article I understand the impact blogs really have on media. They are read by millions everyday, and many people follow certain blogs religiously . Each blog has its own niche and attracts people who are interested in the subject the user is talking about. For example, Perez Hilton is a gossip website, people who would read this site are people who are interested in what is going on in the world of celebrities. It is interesting to see the different things people focus on in their blog, the 50 most powerful blogs has a wide range of topics that can relate to just about anyone, making blogs a new part of the media world.
