Favourite blogs

Some of my early blog posts from 2005, included highlights from my bloglines account. (I've since replaced bloglines with Netvibes.com and Rojo.) It's been a long time since I've plugged other blogs, so here is a list of a few that garner my attention on a regular basis.
- Tim Bray

-
I think Tim Bray's Ongoing was the first blog that I read on a regular basis. His subjects are topical, often relating to XML and other web standards, Sun, and Vancouver.
- BoingBoing

-
As they say, a directory of wonderful things. The volume is high, so this blog fits well in Netvibes where headlines can be scanned at a glance.
- TechCrunch

-
On average a few posts per day, TechCrunch is a source of Web2.0 news. Much of the valley appears to use this blog to advertise beta products.
- Mark Cuban

-
Mark is a person of considerable wealth. He writes about web-based businesses, his Dallas Mavericks, and the stock market.
- Jonathan Schwartz

-
Now CEO, Jonathan provided a candid view of Sun as president.
- Guy Kawasaki

-
Guy's writing makes me feel like the slacker in the back of class, being lectured by a teacher nobody likes. Lookout, much of Guy's blog will be on the final exam.
- Tara Hunt

-
You may be turned off by the marketing mumbo-jumbo, but she works for an uber-cool startup.

For another day: understand how attention is becoming a commodity.
