Mapping the Blogosphere and the Creative Class

Via Pasta and Vinigar, a correlation between Richard Florida’s list of centers of the creative class and blogs.

In fact, the top 10 cities with the most bloggers included the top 8 from Florida’s list of centers of the creative class.
My theory: cities with the richest local online culture (measured in number of blogs, and use of a select group of other geographically-bound websites) will reflect those cities with the highest numbers of creative class people. In short, the cities with the most blogs will be the most economically successful in the future.
