The Next Women Magazine has listed the Top 5 Social Media Female Super Heroes of North America, and has included Melanie Notkin on that distinguished list.

Cited for having "made a niche for herself in developing social media for the millions of women who don’t have their own children, but who have important kids in their lives," Notkin's role as a 'tastemaker' and forecasting trends is also spotlighted.

Notkin was also recently listed in the genConnect / Yahoo Shine Top 10 Women in Social Media list and TwitterGrader.com's Top 100 Most Powerful Women on Twitter.
