Reading Paid Content’s article about the partnership between Elle and Rue La La made me wonder if other magazines would seek out similar agreements with blogs or email newsletters.
What about the these pairings?
The Gilt Groupe and Vogue
She Finds and Lucky
Afrobella and Essence
The Budget Fashionista and Marie Claire
or 55 Secret Street and Allure.

Consider this analogy:
Media websites are like Jans to Marcias who have gossip sites. Now the focus is more on the journalist (blogger) than who, what, when, where, why and how is covered.
Welcome Mediaite which launched today. It is being called “Huffington Post Meets Gawker”, but I think is more “Fishbowl Meets Fame Game” with its media ranking system. There is an algorithm that calculates buzz for the media elite includes twitter, so it is further validating twitter’s emergence as a force.
Muckrack is a very useful aggregate of the twitter feeds if most of the journalists on twitter. It would be interesting to see if Mediaite would add a similar feature. Speaking of things that start with the letter, “M”, does anyone go to Michael’s for lunch any more?!
