Weblebrities and Netizens
December 4th, 2007 at 09:41am Eloy Zuniga Jr.
Just wanted to let everyone know that I’m still alive, done a terrible job lately of posting. I’m sure I and other bloggers ’round the world make this type of post at least twice a year. I don’t want to write without a purpose so I leave you with some words that I’ve learned lately.
Weblebrity - Celebrity who’s pretty much only famous online.
Examples
- Perez Hilton http://perezhilton.com/
- Scoble http://scobleizer.com/
- Amanda Congdon http://amandacongdon.com/blog/
- Lonely Girl 15 http://www.lg15.com/
Netizen - Citizen of the Net (or web person, probably lives online, more so than they live offline)
Examples
- Eloy
- Anyone who works at Schipul
- Anyone works at PopLabs
- Pretty much everyone who works in the web world
- Anyone who owns a myspace + facebook and has no job
My examples are pretty weak, if anyone out there has some better examples … please let me know.
