I haven't felt much like writing lately because I think I'm letting this job search stuff get to me a bit. But I had to share this article because I can honestly say I'm familiar with four of the top 10, including No. 1. Computer World just released this list of the top 10 best written blogs, and one of my favorites, GeekDad, came in at No. 4. I'm not an avid reader of the No. 1 blog, Real Dan, but I've used it in my classes before. His fake Steve Jobs posts are hilarious. Vanity Fair included his input in their Oral History of the Internet too. Posted by Hans K. Meyer
In addition, I have also always appreciated Roger Ebert's reviews, but have been finding him lately through Rotten Tomatoes. His blog is much more, and I enjoyed his observations on Hollywood and film enough that I might add him to the Blogroll. I won't excuse him for Beyond the Valley of the Dolls, however.
Unfortunately, Computer World failed to mention my blog once again. I feel as snubbed as Tom Hanks on Oscar Night in 1998 (His role in Saving Private Ryan was his best ever IMHO.) In all seriousness, I'll probably never crack Computer World's top 10, but I'm glad for the article because it gives me something to aspire to and role models on which to base my efforts.
P.S. If you're still following ER, you're alone now. I started to watch last Thursday's episode, got bored and played video games instead. I've never been a big over-acting Abby fan.

Best blogs? I know some of them.
