What are Your Favourite Blogs?

August 24, 2008 · Filed Under Blogging, Life in general 

I’ve just been reading a fascinating post over on the SEOmoz blog, all about the world’s top blogs. It looks at their niche, are they .com or .co.uk, who are they owned by and some more great info. I recommend you have a look – well worth a few minutes of your time :-)

It got me thinking about blogs. I love reading blogs – it is easily my biggest source of information right now and will be for the foreseeable future.

From your 54 subscriptions, over the last 30 days you read 2,380 items, starred 697 items, shared 933 items, and emailed 72 items.

So, I subscribe to 54 blogs at the moment, and I try and whittle them down every week or so, but usually fail miserably. Hey ho. There are always ones I really look forward to reading, my faves, and I thought I would share a few with you:

thedieline – the leading package design blog – this is just superb. I am increasingly inspired by great packaging – it is SO important for a product.

twitturly - ok, not a blog, but I subscribe to it, and it provides tracking of all the urls being twittered around the web, which in turn gives me some great material and info

signal vs noise – from the 37signals boys, all about design and usability

Seth’s blog – a great read from Seth Godin, a marketing master

Amnesia Blog – from a big marketing agency in Oz – just started reading this one and it seems to have some good stuff

These are a few of my faves at the moment. Now, let me know what you are currently finding essential reading / subscribing please! Hit up the comments now!

Finally, linking on blog stats, have a look at which websites are used more heavily in the US – makes fascinating reading!
