Twenty Social-Eco-Media Gurus I Follow
Before we get started, this isn’t a popularity contest. It is a list of people who I follow and recommend due to the nature of their content submissions. Some of them may not get a lot of stories popular, but I find them all consistently submitting "green content" that I pesonally find interesting. If you like this blog and are looking for more great websites about the environment and sustainable living, check out some of the eco-centric "social media" folks below. There was also a story awhile back about the top ten environmental Diggers. Go check it out for even more great sites. But there’s more to life than Digg so I’m including some other popular social media platforms. And for those of you who dont’ know what that means…
Social media is a form of online interaction by which people interested in similar topics share stuff they find online. The submitted content is then voted on by the community and the best content rises to the top.

These people are all social media leaders and are fantastic. I follow them regularly
Solid list. A few of my favorites as well as some new folks I’ll be checking out.
Thanks so much for including me on this list. I’m definitely into green and social media.. but I’m not sure if I’d make the “guru” cut. One of my favorite up-and-coming guys is Alex Ramon - http://digg.com/users/ColibriEnergy - he unearths some amazing stories.
I’ve been doing my Social Action, Social Justice, and Green Issues PodCast since April 2005. A friend of mine pointed me over here (Mike Potter from ESC! Magazine http://www.coffeehousetogo.com) and I’m looking forward to reviewing more of the trends that get discussed here.
The more I learn every day, the more I learn that I don’t know.

Great list. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for adding me to this list!
I wanted to note that I also have a pretty active digg profile:
http://digg.com/users/claybodie
It also has links to Reddit, Twitter, and Mixx.
Thanks again!
Thanks for the mention. Also use FriendFeed as a good follow/lifestreaming resource. And here’s the link to my Twitter.
An excellent list indeed, but I might have liked it better if there were more than just one woman on the list. There are plenty of us eco-geeky ladies out there!
Thanks very much for the list. Looking forward to networking and sharing green content. We have put your site in the queue for one of the resources to list in our green living section.
A spectacular list that I am honored to be a part of.
Ahoy again - #15 here. Just wanted to let you know that I am on a few other media sites.

I would like to add Mixx user “birdz”, whose website is “alogicalillation.com”. He’s not a real popular social media user and far from a household-name.
His blog is terrific though, and this guy is a superstar-blogger in-the-making, and I highly recommend anyone reading this to check out his site.
