The blog I frequent most is [Fishbowl DC](http://www.fishbowldc.com). Sometimes I visit [Powerline](http://www.powerlineblog.com). I’m pretty sure that Fishbowl was the first (or covered the first) blogger ever in the White House press room. Pretty cool regardless. I really like the coverage of Fishbowl. Powerline is very well written by these 3 lawyer guys. I enjoy the quality, but it is a republican biased blog, so sometimes I don’t agree on the sides taken on the issues. I don’t let that stop me from quality content and I keep an open mind with every issue. (Something that can make blogging more enjoyable.) Also, I sometimes wander off to the links on Fishbowl. I am a subscriber of _The Week_ magazine, so that’s how I found it. What are yours? ---

Not to pee on one’s parade, but I _hate_ blogs. ---

For those interested in how Hong Kong ticks, [fumier](http://fumier.typepad.com/fumier/) gives the reflections of a 20-some year expat with lots of local knowledge. Attracts a lot of comments too, if you like the more interactive type of approach. ---

Oo00o… I also remember seeing one somewhere that a citizen of Afghanistan or Iraq had. He wrote about his daily life with the pressence of American forces taking out the trash. I don’t remember the link or the name of the site, but it’s out there if somebody wants to find it. I think it won an award or a mention on a national level. ---

> [@Lsura](#): > > [Overheard in New York](http://www.overheardinnewyork.com/) I like [Overheard in Dublin](http://www.overheardindublin.com/index.php). Less thinking, more drinking. I hate most blogs too. Most blogs that are not just rants about politics (not culture or society either, just What Pundit X Or Politician Y Did Or Said Today) are pretty much What I Did Today With My Really Cool Boyfriend/Girlfriend/Otherfriends. Let’s not even mention the 7 billion desiccating husks of cobweblogs littering the dark crannies of cyberspace. Check back in 3 months for more hot news from My Dusty Little Corner of the Web! :rolleyes: :o ---

There’s only one, the [Going Underground](http://london-underground.blogspot.com/) London tube blog. There _is_, I suppose, my very own [Poker Blog](http://maybedinero.blogspot.com) 😉
