From The Many Faces of Influence @ traackr.com:
Online influencers come in many forms. From the web celebrity to the nerdy expert to the personal brand.
Among these influencer profiles are:
- the Authority, the influencer who is expert in connecting topic areas and can package insights into a meaningful bundle for his audience;
- the Insider, who finds alliances to build the market story he needs to tell and pushes the industry forward; and
- the Agitator, who always looks for ways to stir the pot and push conversations to new heights.
