I'm so happy and honored to be considered one of your top friends. I hope you know that you are one of mine as well. More like family really but you know what I mean. I love that you took the time to think about some special people and write a little about them. Some of them I already know and admire and some are new to me so I'll be following them too. Any friend of yours is a friend of mine and has got to be a great person.

I can't even begin to put into words how much you have enriched my life. You have such a wonderful, kind, caring and generous spirit. What you put out into the world always comes back to you so you'll always be surrounded by amazing people.

You're in my thoughts every day and in my prayers every night. Happy New Year my friend!

Todd, I really enjoyed this post. It speaks so much of friendships and the value in building relationships. That's what I think many of us have been looking for in social media, and you've captured not only a lot of great folks involved, but the reasons that make each of them so special

Thank you for being a part of my online world and I look forward to continuing into the future.

Gosh, Todd, thanks so much for including me on this list! I'm really honored - it has been a pleasure getting to know you.

I was so preoccupied thinking "business" at the last SOBCon that I didn't really focus properly during our conversations, but I hope I've made up for it on our Skype calls....and the beer I'll buy you when we meet F2F again. ;)

Happy New Year!

Sheila

Todd: I appreciate this article. It is great that you take some time to recognize that we are a community -- worldwide as it is -- contributing to each others conversation.

I thank you for being a member of my connections. We've shared some good conversations, some laughs, some insight . It's been fun so far! Have a great 2009 and I look forward to opportunities to engage in the discussions even further!

Thank you so much for your friendship. Your a special person and in that way, people who are seeking true friendships are drawn to your spirit.

I totally agree with all the @SOBCOn peeps on your list, @SOBCon is the best conference ever with the best people.

Thanks for all your support on my projects, your great advice, and wonderful friendship. *You give a kiss to your better half, Nana* because she seems to only make you a better person, which is hard to find.

xoxo VickyH (@eeUS)

Thanks kindly Paisano.

For the record, Paisano has been one of the kindest and helpful folks I've met online. The fact that he's not included above does not reflect anything but my haste to get the list together.

Cheers Pai.

Thank you Connie. You have impressed the heck out of me this year. It's been great having you along side.

Sorry about the BlogHer mistake, and just why aren't you in charge?! Ha.

Cheers to 2009.

Todd, I'm so honored to be on your list--many thanks for including me and for your friendship. It was great to get to meet you this year.

Just to set the record straight, I'm not one of the leaders of BlogHer, although I've been privileged to speak at BlogHer Business and BlogHer in Second Life.

Happy New Year, friend!

Marti,
You've shown me trust, concern, friendship and more. Welcoming me into your inner sanctum and shouting out about me to your friends and more, those are more than I could have asked for. Thanks.

tojosan — Wed, 31 Dec 2008 23:29:38 -0000

You make me blush about being generous. I felt like I shortchanged everyone.

You took time to reach out to me and many others this year. Brave and positive - what a combination.
