Good idea. I’ll have to do mine! Some will be the same, I think.
Can’t wait to see who you pick.

I think I would add Richard B. Hays to the list, but yours looks great.
Will: I haven’t read Hays yet. Perhaps when I get around to it my list will need updating.
Here are my additions:
John Stott
Luke Timothy Johnson
Craig Keener
Gary Burge
Os Guiness
F.F. Bruce*
C.S. Lewis*
Walter Martin*
Stan Grenz*
If we are allowing famous names from the past, how about adding these two?
Paul of Tarsus*
Jesus of Nazareth (no*)
Add two more old dead scholars for me:
J.B. Lightfoot*
Origen* (who would single-handedly outpost the rest of the blogosphere!)
Brian: Keener and Bruce were considered for this list but ultimately lost out.
Peter: Well, my interaction with Jesus is already personal so I think him keeping a blog would be superfluous. I’d create a whole new category for Paul.
Chuck: I can leave Lightfoot, but Origen would be a welcome addition, and you’re right, he would outpost the rest of the blogosphere, unless of course, Jacob Neusner started blogging. :-P
Maybe I’ll do a top 10 list of Church Fathers I wish blogged.
cool idea; I did my own.
