ImagePeter Mandelson, the UK Commissioner for Trade, is more popular than his EU colleagues amongst bloggers. The sometimes controversial Mandelson is EU Commissioner for Trade since November 2004. Interestingly enough his second most discussed colleague is the Commissioner for Competition Neelie Smit with whom he had some dealings after it had been revealed that Mandelson spent some time with Microsofts Paul Allen when Microsoft was under investigation.

On YouTube Mandelson has strong visibility competition for Commissioner from Media and Information Society, the Luxembourgish Viviane Redding, still Mandelson has higher visibility than the Commission President Barroso. (click images to enlarge)

Mandelson is mostly related to labour topics in blogs, this is largely due to his carreer in Tony Blairs Labour Party, being one of the founding fathers of New Labour. the UK Commissioner seems to be mingling into many areas, including those covered by his collaegues, if we are to believe the bloggers.
