For 2004, I know I need some new blogs to read. Right now my reads generally and quite happily fall into these categories:
- People I have met or know people I have met;
- People who are yapping about blogs and how they are the future and will have us all eating food from tubes someday undefined but surely soon;
- People with a connection to Kingston, Atlantic Canada or Scotland;
- People who have linked to me;
- People talking about food and drink.
I know I do not want to read blogs mainly about my job – law – as the lawyers who write blogs mainly about law tend to be the lawyers you drift away from at gatherings of lawyers. I do not want to read blogs about US politics as they have that thick veneer about “liberal” and “right” that defies either comprehension or perhaps only extra-territorial translation. Are there gems out there based on other themes? I am really pleased how Switching to Glide has begun to develop from an idea – are there other music based group blogs, for example?
And how do you find new reading?
