I haven’t found any decent blog on mental health really, and I’ve been looking.Also looked for digital art ones and gardening, because I’m getting quite interested now that mine has started to grow.
The best one I’ve been enjoying is the one I pingbacked, http://www.thisgardenisillegal.com/. I could pick any of the posts I read there. She has a real conversational style and gives lots of interesting and unknown (to me at least) facts.
I also really like http://www.kirupa.com/ which has a lot of great flash tips and tutorials.
Found this really awesome flash movie from Digg in my reader: http://samorost2.net/plantage/ You should all watch it!

The one blog that I find myself going back to time and again is Shoestring Branding. http://www.shoestringbranding.com/ I did a pingback to one of his posts during our week 3 assignment. Mario’s posts are well-written and easy to understand, but most of all they are informative and interesting to read. Even though many of his posts are lengthy, they hold my attention from beginning to end. I will definitely be using Mario’s posts for inspiration for my blog in the future.
I have a blog I love to read just for the humor. The writer is a young mom, and having been where she is in her life, and having daughters who are currently where she is, I can relate to her stories. And she just keeps me laughing. She writes well. Her name is Lucy Adams. She’s written a book “If Mamma Don’t Laugh, It Ain’t Funny, which I bought after finding her blog: http://www.ifmama.com/blog.php
Now, reading Viki’s favorite blog-to-read-daily, I’ll add it to my favorites too. What he talks about is universally applicable to anyone in growth mode. So thanks, Viki, for finding it.
I also like (one of) Anita’s favorite: This Garden is Illegal.
I really like Olivia Johnson’s The Wild Side (http://judson.blogs.nytimes.com/). Her articles on evolutionary biology are both engaging and informative – and always have a bit of a strange or intriguing angle. That she gives a historical perspective to the topics she covers is also a plus.
Now it would actually help if I got the author’s name right, wouldn’t it? Make that Olivia Judson (not Johnson). My fingers were working faster than my brain.
