Crazy amount of tech blogs at the top. There might be fewer people who care about startups than Paris Hilton, but the startup lovers are online 14 hours a day, while the Paris Hilton obsessives can't even spell DSL, let alone subscribe to it.
What the internet thinks is interesting has little relation to what the overall population thinks is.
You'd be surprised, at least in the US. For example, perezhilton.com seems to have twice as much traffic as techcrunch.com according to Alexa and Quantcast. I have no doubt that Technorati's metrics are much less reliable (authority? number of fans?). Check out the Quantcast top 100:
Would you have guessed that Walmart would be at #21?
More than half of all US homes have broadband. How many startup lovers do you think are out there? Also, how many people surf the web at work to pass the time every day?
