The I List
A year or so ago, there was the Z list. Next, the W list. Then, came the O list. Now, I think it is high time that we share with the world the power of blogging in Iowa.
Meet the I list.
If you're an Iowa blogger, grab this list....add any Iowa blogs that might be missing and then post it on your blog. Let's see how many we can get. If you're not an Iowa blogger -- grab the list and challenge your state's bloggers to match or beat it!
Either way -- what a great way to launch the new year -- some link love and even more important -- some long overdue props to the state that is not only setting the political course with our caucuses, but also charts the waters for bloggers everywhere.

Drew-WOW-what a list! Way to set the bar high. I am so proud to be among these amazing Midwest voices! Thanks for sharing-this is a fantastic way to start the new year!

Not only am I thrilled to be on the list, but there are some great sounding blogs I have never visited before. You can bet that is soon to be fixed. Great idea Drew.

Very nice Drew! Each time I think I'll add someone I look back to the list and they're already there!

Great way to start off the year! And I've been meaning to add an Iowa blogroll to my site.
Thanks, Drew. Happy New Year!
