How Public Are You? 50 “Most Public” People in New York

NowPublic has launched the “Most Public Index,” which identifies the “the 50 most influential individuals in New York.” There is at least one PR person in the top ten: Edelman’s Steve Rubel. Our own Laurel Touby made the list at #48, just ahead of former Gawker and Galleycat blogger Emily Gould.

Others on the list who you may know: Arianna Huffington, CNET’s Caroline McCarthy, AdWeek’s Brian Morrissey and Gawker Media founder Nick Denton.

Amazingly, Wired cover girl Julia Allison did not make the list, but her pal Meghan Asha did.

Create a social media strategy, launch your campaign, and track the results in our Social Media Marketing Boot Camp starting February 16. The online event and workshop will feature speakers including The Onion‘s Baratunde Thurston (left), Facebook’s Morin Oluwole, and bitly’s Tim Devane. Register now.
