# What are the top 20 Portland blogs?

[![Where are all of these Portland bloggers blogs?](https://i0.wp.com/siliconflorist.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/portland-bloggers.jpg?w=925)](http://www.flickr.com/photos/ixmati/3296808212/ "Where are all of these Portland bloggers blogs?")I was digging around on [PostRank](http://www.postrank.com/topic/portland "PostRank") after reading [a great post on the PostRank Newsroom](http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/the_postrank_newsroom_twitter_for_important_inform.php "PostRank Twitter Newsroom") by my favorite Vice President of a Blog, [Marshall Kirkpatrick](http://marshallk.com "Marshall Kirkpatrick"). And that digging lead me to a little gem: the list of the **[top blogs in Portland, Oregon](http://www.postrank.com/topic/portland "Top 20 Blogs in Portland Oregon")**.

So who’s currently in the top 20? I’m glad you asked.

Here’s how the top 20 blogs in Portland are looking this week:

1. [KATU](http://www.katu.com/news)
2. [Jack Bog’s Blog](http://bojack.org/)
3. [Blazers Blog – OregonLive.com](http://blog.oregonlive.com/blazers)
4. [KGW.com Local News](http://www.kgw.com/)
5. [Our PDX](http://ourpdx.com "OurPDX")
6. [The Portland Tribune – News](http://www.portlandtribune.com/news/index.php)
7. [Dave Knows: Portland](http://portland.daveknows.org/)
8. [PORTLAND NEWS – Google Blog Search](http://blogsearch.google.com/blogsearch?oe=utf-8&client=firefox-a&um=1&oi=blogsearch_group&ct=title&ie=UTF-8&num=10&q=PORTLAND+NEWS)
9. [Trail Post – A Portland Trail…](http://trailpost.today.com/)
10. [Around the Sun](http://aroundthesunblog.com/)
11. [msnbc.com: KGW](http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/3085243/)
12. [Portland Transport](http://portlandtransport.com/)
13. [Front Porch – Portland Real Estate](http://blog.oregonlive.com/frontporch/)
14. [KATU – Sports – Local Sports](http://www.katu.com/sports/local)
15. [Portland Acupuncture Blog](http://www.portlandacupunctureblog.com/)

17. [Portland News](http://www.topix.com/portland)
18. [About.com Portland, OR](http://portlandor.about.com/)
19. [Metroblogging Portland](http://portland.metblogs.com/)
20. [The Portland Tribune – Jaynes](http://www.portlandtribune.com/sports/index.php)

Wait a second. Those are actually feeds. (But I knew if I put “feeds” in the headline you probably wouldn’t read this.) So let’s whittle down the list to actual blogs:

1. [Jack Bog’s Blog](http://bojack.org/)
2. [Blazers Blog – OregonLive.com](http://blog.oregonlive.com/blazers)
3. [Our PDX](http://ourpdx.com "OurPDX")
4. [Dave Knows: Portland](http://portland.daveknows.org/)
5. [Trail Post](http://trailpost.today.com/)
6. [Around the Sun](http://aroundthesunblog.com/)
7. [Portland Transport](http://portlandtransport.com/)
8. [Front Porch – Portland Real Estate](http://blog.oregonlive.com/frontporch/)
9. [Portland Acupuncture Blog](http://www.portlandacupunctureblog.com/)
10. [Metroblogging Portland](http://portland.metblogs.com/)

Okay. So that’s more like it.

But then again. No offense to those on the list, but for as vibrant of a blogging community as we have—I mean, here’s a [smattering of Portland WordPress blogs](http://www.aboutus.org/PortlandWordPress "Portland WordPress blogs"), alone—that’s a pretty damned anemic list.

So I’m going to go [import an OPML file from my feed reader](http://www.postrank.com/subscriptions "Import into PostRank") and start tagging those feeds appropriately. If you’re interested in seeing a more representative list of Portland (or any other Oregon or Silicon Forest) blogs on here, I’d suggest you do the same.

It would be really nice to see some more of those awesome Portland blogs I know and love making the list.
