Through Karen Schneider’s blog, I have been pseudo-assigned to post 5 non-library blogs that I read.

Here they are, in alphabetical order (hey, I work in a library… feel lucky I didn’t classify them via LC or Dewey):

  1. A List Apart - even though the initials spell ALA, this is a great non-library blog with web design information.
  2. Damn Interesting - essays about odds and ends throughout society and history that all seem to be, well, damn interesting.
  3. MetaFilter - as unpredictable as the internet itself, but usually a glimpse into the fascination du jour.
  4. NewsForge - dispatches from the Open Source world.
  5. Robert Reich’s Blog - fascinating commentary on politics and economics, plus his video blogs contain tidbits about his date with Hilary Rodham back in the day.

If you are a library blogger and are reading this, you are now on assignment… give me 5!

p.s. This meme was started by The Liminal Librarian, btw.
