The Influence Virus: Our Unlikely Experiment in Social Media
Letter from the Editor.
Who are the most influential people online right now? That's what The Influence Project was designed to answer. More than 32,000 people joined us to find out, and get their photo in the magazine this November. Our exploration of influence was at turns controversial, hilarious, inspirational, and fascinating. And although the project is now closed for submissions, we are continuing to chronicle the spread of influence in digital media and beyond--follow this page to read our daily updates.
From YouTube celebrities to chief social-media officers, these unexpected players exert outsize impact and power online -- offering new channels of communication that businesses can't afford to ignore.
