On Wednesday, Wikio is going to update its Top 20 Tech sites list and we’ve learned what it will look like. We’re glad to see Ubergizmo in there and we thank our readers, fans, friends and fellow bloggers for it.
Many people are familiar with Technorati, but in Europe, Wikio is pretty big. It’s a French company, founded by Pierre Chappaz, who also co-founded Kelkoo, which was sold to Yahoo for about half a billion Euros a few years ago.
Wikio’s ranking is computed with an obscure mix of information that includes linkbacks but not traffic. The site is mainly a news portal where people can vote. There’s also a shopping component – it’s a bit as if Google News, Digg and Kelkoo had a child – somehow. Full list after the jump.
