Speaking of which, it's time to get to work! (Sure it takes hard work. A lot of it. But when you like it and enjoy it, it makes it that much easier to accomplish things).

I'm quite famous in my own circle. I know the top 6 you mention and can exchange emails with most of them. But, that's not why I'm "famous"... I'm famous because I was the FIRST woman blogger to write about marketing to women online. I was the FIRST woman to write a book about same. My fame is very strong within the circles of women I have met, via my blog and book. I am connected to more women in the blogopshere than most, and I nurture those relationships as much as possible. I have been asked to speak or be interviewed dozens of times, mostly on the net, by businesses hoping to tap into the women's market, authors wanting to learn the ins and outs of writing a book, and bloggers who can't figure out how to make their blog work for them. But, I am not as famous as dozens of other women. Women you did not mention in your "famous" list. They are famous and powerful via their work on the net, like Jory DesJardins and Elisa Camahort Page and Lisa Stone, founders of Blogher. Or, Arianna Huffington from The Huffington Post. Or, Toby Bloomberg who is an expert at business blog strategy. I am not trying to criticize, please don't take offense. I just like to mention the gals, too. In the end, the web allows a business to become a Big Fish in a little pond...that is, within its business niche, sometimes within a geographical region (often then spreading out to a global market) it can become a thought leader and that fame can help increase business, exponentially.

Also amazing how all 6 examples you provided for insta-fame were YouTubes.
