Bloggers and Blog Places of Interest

I’ve recently ran across a few blogs that I thought some of you might be interested in.

World Events

The blog site "Friends of Democracy" is run by some folks who live in Iraq. Over the last week or so they’ve been reporting on thoughts re: the upcoming election among the general Iraqi public. Interesting stuff.

Traffic

If you live in a major city, you might find this useful. A friend pointed out traffic.com to me. The nifty thing about it is that they publish an rss feed for traffic reports. And since they’ve got one for Dallas, that’s really convenient for me! So, if you live in a big city, yours might be on the list. Check it out.

Code Monkeys

For all you code monkeys out there, let me draw your attention to two sites. First is the blog of a friend and fellow .NET coder, Chris Hockenberry. His blog is called Darth Coder. Lately he’s been posting about the new versions of Sql Server and Visual Studio that are coming out soon. Cool stuff.

Also, note the CodeBetter.com blogs. It’s pretty obvious what that’s all about. It’s a bunch of coders.

Well...there you go...

In this connection your readers might also want to check out this new book on blogging. This is supposedly the first book published on the subject by a major blogger.
