Zlango - Fun 2.0

I recently encountered Zlango. On first sight nothing new seems to be here, we had plenty of icon languages in the past and present (basically smileys and other simple icons). I installed their ICQ version (yes I am still using ICQ, since 1999) and I have to admit: it is pure fun. Your text is transformed "on the fly" into icons (with some practice you can communicate with people not knowing your language at all).

In addition they released a plug-in for mail services (including Gmail and AOLmail).

Top Bloggers per Country

To run a blog campaign for the site I am working for I tried to assemble a list with influential bloggers per country. There is a lot of work to do in that area. It took one day to create a list for 8 countries (India, Greece, Ukraine, Czech Republic, Thailand, Netherlands, Poland and Hungary) and it is a pretty short list (less than 50 names). I used the following resources: www.technorati.com - the bible of blogger information
www.readwriteweb.com - excellent site, highly recommended
www.google.com - trying to search for 'top indian bloggers' is OK but 'top dutch bloggers' probably takes you to my blog as soon as it will be indexed (nice tip for black hat SEO).
Any idea if there is a more comprehensive existing list of bloggers per country (and category)? If not I probably will build it and sell it.
