    I was wondering if I could get your opinions on the question title of the thread. Who do you think is the most influential blogger today? Does any one know who makes the most money blogging?

    Darren Rowse (Problogger) is highly influential. Check out my blog post for an interview I recently did with him!

    So you don't have adsense or any other affiliates on your blog than?

    Anyway, I agree about problogger and tech crunch. What about Shoemoney and John Chow?

    I think you need to define - most influential in what?

    I personally read all blogs mentioned above for one simple reason - blogs are all personal expressions even for the guys who reached bigger level of success and each of them has a different voice and as such influence in different aspect of blogging.

    I'll rephrase...
    In your opinion, what blogger has influenced blogging the most? I meant it as a general question open to whatever interpretation you have in mind.

    i see money as a bonus for my blog, not the insentive. I make enough to pay for hosting, then the rest goes on competition prizes/back into the forum community.
