    I must say, I enjoy reading Rob's[^] blog. But I'm curious, what writers do people like? What are some good technical blogs? The kind of blog entries I like are the ones that are short and to the point. Not disertations. I like Rob's because they're short little snippets about his life. I like short technical blogs. I'm not much into political blogs. What about you? What kind of blogs do you enjoy reading? Marc My website

        None. If I stumble across one when searching for something and it's helpful then that's about the best I can say about any blogs. I'd rather spend my time living my life rather than reading about someone else living theirs.

            I like to read technical blogs too. I'm not too interested in political or "what i did' today kind of blogs. I read blogs that help me with my job, or point me to interesting software related items. Obviously I read all the MyXaml/XAML stuff I can find. I also read Scoble[^], because he does have interesting insights. I read a lot of the MSDN Blogs[^] and other Microsoft developers like Dare Obasanjo aka Carnage4Life[^], the IE team blog[^], Sara Ford[^] has a great VS blog too. There are a few gems over at wdevs[^] and Mini Microsoft[^] is a different look at Microsoft. Nish[^] always has something interesting on C++ to read. For non-work related blogs, I enjoy reading the blogs of two UK comedians/writers, Richard Herring[^] and Emma Kennedy[^] Michael CP Blog [^]

                      I read Rob's semi-regularly (no RSS, just when I have a free moment). I still believe he should write a book. Excluding work/job-related feeds The Daily WTF is the only other one I read.

                        If you consider sites like Slashdot and ArsTechnica blogs even though they predate the term (and i most certainly do), then those would probably top my list. I also dig technical blogs. Sites that are essentially someone's worklog, detailing the problems they encounter, the challenges they overcome, the tips and tricks they've picked up over the years. This is rather difficult to do well, and so i have quite a bit of respect for writers who can pull it off. Rob mentioned Raymond Chen, and i will as well: a good writer and excellent coder. Blogs i hate: Anything that updates frequently but posts nothing but links, or links and a pathetically small amount of commentary. If i don't see at least a good paragraph of text sans links, i'll likely move on without reading.

                          You're in my RSS feeds at home, which I check several times a week. You're one of the few good sources on C++/CLI; even though I don't write professionally with C++/CLI, I find it interesting to learn and see some of the cool things you can do with it (especially the STL.NET bits).

                            Raymond Chen is a champ. I also follow Herb Sutter[^] although he is not that active lately.

                              Raymond Chen's Old New Thing[^], Brad Abrams WinFX & CLR blog[^], Rico Marianni's .NET performance tidbits[^], and of course Joel Spolsky's Joel on Software[^] are some of my favorites.

                                Same here. For some reason I find them annoying. :-) OTOH, I do have a list of RSS feeds that I collect in my homepage that I check on everyday.
