Help to complete the list of Web 2.0 Rock Stars

July 9, 2008 By Dan Thornton

If you’re on the following (subjective) list of Web 2.0 Rockstars which I’m compiling with my colleague David Cushman for publication on Ditto.net, or you know one of the nominees, then could you email me a portrait photo?
