Treehugger

No Comments, Green, by admin.

Treehugger I’m not really into commercial blogs on this site but I’m forced to ask myself, where is the line as several of the blogs I’ve listed are already very commercial. I also categorize some blogs by what they are worth, so I’m being slightly hypocritical.

Two Write Hands (and two left feet) This is very much a Seinfeld blog form a very good writer indeed. This is what she says about herself,
I’ve been told I can write, but no one ever told me I could dance. Find here the brainwork of a 27-year-old college student, published writer, and self-proclaimed genius. [...]

2020 Hindsight someone else described this as a zeitgeist blog. It is a perfect description essentially an anonymous author with nothing personal at all except the insight from looking and reading about a personal collection of interesting things. It is a sticky blog, a browsing blog. A place to spend some time. Interestingly this blog [...]

Lazylaces

Lazylaces now I admit this review is biased. I set out to find a blog I liked by a man. One that wasn’t about SEO or making money. This is one of the top games blogs, its British and written by a man, Graeme. The look is great it takes a bit of getting used [...]

Lady Banana Blog

No Comments, Blogs by Women, Funny, Life, by admin.

Lady Banana Blog I can see that I’m really liking blogs by women at the moment. The writing is usually funny, often quirky and not normally about making money through blogging and very rarely about SEO.
Lady Banana is an English woman who simply writes about the things that take her fancy. I’m going to create [...]

Human Clock

No Comments, Humanclock, by admin.

Humanclock.com this idea is simply far to cool. It comes under the “Why Didn’t I Think of That” school of thought. A question no one should ever find the answer too because it will cause self esteem issues. I this instance the reason I didn’t think of it could be that I’m really not that [...]

GadgetTastic I really like this site. There are a lot of gadget and tech blogs out there but this one is a goody. Great pictures, short posts that are very readable and no jargon. It is very up to date and I have nothing bad to say about it. A few years ago people thought [...]
