Five excellent bloggers that I missed
social media June 6th. 2008, 8:05pmBetween Colin Walker, Louis Gray, and FriendFeed itself, I’ve discovered five other great bloggers that I should have mentioned a couple of weeks ago. Shame on me.
Here they are:
Robin Cannon - Fog of Eternity covers social media and tech with an emphasis on web design. Great observations on social media, bookmarking, and news. He’s got some very good thoughts on the fragmentation of conversation on the Web, as an example.
Hutch Carpenter - I don’t believe Hutch when he has a title like I’m Not Really a Geek because he’s got some great, sharp insights into social media and its associated challenges. One of his signal vs. noise posts was quoted in ReadWriteWeb, so you know he’s got a sharp mind and writing style.
Julian Baldwin - yet another insightful social media blogger, the author of Notes, Thoughts, Ideas and Responses is making his mark as well. His recent post on How Early Adopters Pull The Web is an outstanding look at the influence of technology early adopters.
Aurelis Maximus - I don’t know a whole lot about this blogger, but I was impressed by his navel gazing post which also talked about the value that the early adopter provides to the rest of the blogosphere.
Rob Diana - I’ve seen this Regular Geek around social media for a few months but I only recently tuned into his blog. He’s also getting some well deserved recognition for creating YackTrack, a new conversation tracking application.
Rock on, guys!

I wasn’t aware of Hutch’s blog (love that name, reminds me of General Hospital back in the 80s) or some of the others - thanks for the headsup!

These are some very good reads, and I have all of them in my reader. However, Hutch is a liar, he has to be a geek.

Feeling loved now.
Glad that you appreciate the blog. Also pleased that you noted that I have tried to maintain a web design aspect to the blog, even with the increased emphasis on social networking. I’d been slightly worried that that aspect had been lost, because I am a designer first and foremost and love the creative aspects of developing web pages.

I’ve not really got into Friendfeed yet, though I do have an account. I’m trying to get my blog noticed so might have to be more active over there!
