Open Media 100

AlwaysOn and Technorati have come together to create the "Open Media 100". A comprehensive list of the movers and shakers in Open Media, from the creators and visionaries to the reporters and collectors that shape the new Mediascape. Described in their own words:

"The purpose of this list is to provide an initial, helpful framework of this emerging industry and highlight its key players who are influencing the adoption of open media and proving the impact it is already having on the technology industry, journalism, and marketing."

The list is VERY impressive, and is sure to give countless hours of reading material to anyone interested in Open Media. Additionally, the list serves as a Mega-Blogroll of the important players.

I'm reproducing it here for two reasons, one so you can have a look at it and two, so I can have it easily accessible for my own use. I'll probably wind up putting it in the sidebar in some fashion as well.

The list is pretty damn big, so I'm leaving out the 50 Honorable Mentions for now, I'll find a place to stick them for easy access in a little bit.
