awesome article: new york magazine exposes how NY society was held captive by a blog for a year

this is a total plotline for a movie or tv series (writers get writing!), but in reality, the now defunct blog socialite rank held NY society under complete captivy for a year with their weekly chart of the top 20 socialites in the city.

but what blew the blog over the top was a letter they posted a few months back allegedly written by newbie socialite olivia palermo practically begging to be recognized by the IT girls.

you can't even make this stuff up. check out the whole juicy story at new york magazine's website.

update: with socialite rank down, the blog that has taken over the reigns is the soft peddling park avenue peerage.
