Virtually Blind Morning Coffee Blogroll Update
October 19th, 2007 by Benjamin Duranske
I’m updating VB’s “Blogroll,” which you can usually find at the end of the right-hand sidebar. I have, frankly, let far too much time pass without updating the list to acknowledge the sites I visit regularly, so in a partial effort to make up for my laziness over the last few months, I’m going to reproduce the list here, as a post, so readers can join me on my morning coffee routine or stroll through these over the weekend.
I expect about two-thirds of these will be familar to most VB readers — but I’m guessing there are some real gems that you’ve been missing in the other third. These are sites I actually visit. I’m not a fan of feed readers because they destroy formatting, so instead, I use a Firefox extension called Morning Coffee to open a subset of these sites each morning. Some I hit daily, some a couple times a week, and two (in Polish and Italian) I can only mine for links. But I regularly visit every one of these sites, and I enjoy them all — whether I agree with the authors or not.
There’s real variety here: some law sites, some virtual world art and fashion blogs, a number of game designers’ pages, some resident-experience blogs, some political sites, and more. I hope you find the list as interesting as I do.
If you happen to run one of these sites, and you’re following the incoming link, please consider adding Virtually Blind to your blogroll as well. And if your site (or one you love) isn’t listed here and it should be, shoot me a note or leave a comment. I will check it out. Finally, I am sure that I have overlooked some that I read regularly, and I apologize in advance for the oversight.

Thanks Ben, there goes my morning….
Hi Ben – thanks for the link :)

FYI – I added a few since I ran this. I’m going to close additions at this point. I’ve gotten some nice feedback by email on this feature, so I’ll plan to run it again in a few months with further additions.
Aha, thank you! *flattered* =)
OK – you’re on the roll for Your2ndPlace.com, but KnowProSE.com will require me to do a special post myself – one long overdue, actually. KnowProSE.com pulls from such a diverse blogosphere… including VirtuallyBlind. :-)
Thanks – you’re now on the blogroll for Second Arts. Glad to know you enjoy the blog!
Check out my blog as well. http://djdoubledown.blogspot.com
Although it pertains to live DJs and clubs in second life, I have, and always will follow news regarding the legalities of live streaming, internet djing, RIAA, BMI, etc.
Thanks Doubledown – I’ve actually been there, now that I think about it. It definitely fits in with this list and is a place I’ll check out more consistently going forward. I’ll also add you on the next update.
