50) Emotional Currency

People often talk about the worth of a blog based on the number of readers, or the number of hits per day. That's well and fine, but is there something to be said about the amount of emotion a blogger can elicit from his/her readers? While news/fact based blogs are great for information, having the power to make people feel something is a whole other story.

What if there was a way to measure the emotional currency of a blog? Could we put a price on it?
