Well, I've been having a look around at a few blogs. There are so many to choose from the participants list that it is pretty much a "choosing a blog by it's title" scenario.
Adventures of the Red Headed Traveler immediately caught my eye near the top of the list, and while there wasn't anything about 23 Things in her postings I did enjoy having a look at her photos (she's travelled to 15 countries in 5 continents, and is only 20 something) and there was a yummy eggplant recipe.
Using the Delicious tags I was able to see who else in NZ was blogging, and thought that Library Matters will be worth following. Joann Ransom has been blogging for a while, and as the subtitle of her blog is "Things Worth Sharing" she has some interesting posts. I liked a recent one on "10 things you should know about librarianship", where one of the things is "If you're scared of technology, you can't work in libraries". True, we need to embrace technology, so thank goodness for courses like this one, which will hopefully ease the passage along that path.
I'll explore others as time permits, but if anyone has recommendations - leave a comment. Thanks

Yes - that was an interesting post! I get a lot of interesting reading from blogs. two of my favourites are:

Lonewolf especially must siftthrough a huge amount of online material because what he posts about is usually very good - and we all know there is a lot of rubbish out there!
