The best of ‘The Best of 2006′ list lists list
Steve Safran December 23rd, 2006
I think it started with Rex: bloggers putting together lists of “Best of the Year” lists. But it can be hard to sort out all those list lists, can’t it? Which best list of the best is the best list list? To help clear up any confusion, I have gone through the lists of lists, to bring you the this list of list lists: The Best of the “Best of 2006” List Lists List.
Fimoculous: The granddaddy of the “Best of” list lists, Rex Sorgatz had the inspired idea to aggregate “Best of” lists to present a more comprehensive list of what “best” was best. Fimoc is the best “Best of” lists list. Just search Google for top lists 2006 and see what’s first.
Reel Pop: Steve Bryant puts together his “Top Ten List of Top Ten Lists of Top Ten Online Videos.” A solid meta-list. Bryant has had a good year, recently adding this Hollywood Reporter blog to his resume.
Pitchfork Media: Bonus points for generating a list of “Best of” lists all its own. Pitchfork asked their favorite music artists for lists of their favorite music.
And Matt McAlister has a great “Top 10 Top Ten Lists” list. Included on the lists list is Valleywag’s “Top Ten Rules for a Top Ten List,” a good list for makers of lists, list lists and list list lists.
There you have it. I am crossing my fingers I make someone’s best of the best of the Best of 2006 list list lists list. That should clear things up.
