Professional Blogs -- Suggestions?

There are lots of blogs out there employed for personal uses, such as posting pics of one's vacation trips, complaining about politics, and raving about the latest new laptop. Many of these are excellent, too. But, are there any (many?) examples of how executives and/or academics have used blogs in their professional communities or as part of their job?

One exemplar site I've found is in the area of law. Larry Lessig's blog, at www.lessig.org/blog, is chock full of legal curiosity and insight. Another great professional site is Clay Shirkey (www.shirky.com), which is clearly a good pick from the (all-too-popular) "tech futurist" niche.

From the business world comes Mark Cuban's blog at www.blogmaverick.com. Cuban's blog is one example of how an executive might write about his industry.

Does anyone know of any other stellar examples of academics/researchers/executives employing a blog to further their own voices and make an impact in their communities?
