@Brian — The way you describe having a blog is pretty much spot on for us too. It’s the most rewarding tool I’ve used by far.

Angie -

Thanks for including the Design Cubicle in your list. It was really nice to read the kind words about how my personality shines through my site. Really means a lot to me and was very kind of you to point it out.

Great read as well! Since starting TDC I have seen an improvement in both my work and marketing, while hopefully helping and inspiring others. I have felt nothing shorter than pure enjoyment from the interactions of my blog and hope to continue that for a long time.

@Tom & Nick — No problem guys, I’m glad I could also turn you on to some new sites to read.

@Dave — Wow, I’m glad you found 9 new blogs to check out. I’m also really happy you like the site :)

The plugins are TweetMeme Button and SexyBookmarks. Both are really easy to set up and work great!

Thanks for this list.

I had actually seen one of the sites before (think design), but all the others were new, and a few of them met some very recent needs!

Overall really enjoy your site (I came for a freebie, but really like everything else I have seen there.

Thank you for your work and willingness to share your creativity.

p.s. — As a wordpress user, I am curious as to what plugin you use for your twitter rt tool, and your social bookmarking tool? Thanks.

Thanks so much for the mention and the kind words Angie! :) This is a great list, I hadn’t seen many of the blogs that were later in the list, so now have some new reading material. Thanks again!

No thanks necessary to all three of you, the features were fully deserved :)

@Sneh — I’m so happy we made your day, that makes me feel all warm and fuzzy :)

@Andrew — It’s a great list of sites, some of which don’t get anywhere near the recognition they deserve.

@A u d e e — Both of those are great blogs, highly recommended :). Thank you so much, I’m so happy to hear that we’re one of your favorites.

It’s in our plans to start doing some smaller posts between the weekly larger ones to give our readers a bit more content. Now it’s just finding the time to do it lol.
