Do you read blogs?

12 March, 2014 at 16:41 Posted on Off Topic Posts 0 18

I have just had a half an hour catch up of my dozen or so favourite blogs. I was wondering if any Otters indulge in this? Any good blogs to pass on? Mine are all mostly parenting ones that I started reading when first pregnant with Laila (nearly 10 years ago eek!) and they are like old friends. I even have a little "blog" bit in my favourites.

ETA - If I find a new blog that I like I can spend hours going through archives and link surfing. I am one nosy mofo.

    Just rocknrollbride and occasionally Gala Darling. Then I go on Get Off My Internets and read people snarking about those blogs - as well as many others. It's a love/hate relationship.

    I read one dressmaking one and my other guilty time murdering habit is watching make-up and clothes reviews on youtube. I don't like myself for wasting so much time on the internet!!

    Last year I did get into a veg growing one, maybe I'll get back on that again now the weather is improving.

    I read a few mental health ones, Any Other Woman and my current favourite is this one: www.coffee-helps.com

    It's written by an Irish woman who teaches English abroad, she's lived in a lot of different places but since I've been reading she's lived in South Korea, Prague and now Turkey. She writes about her experiences of living abroad and the cultural differences, it's very interesting and very funny!

    This is my big problem with blogs, and anything internet related in fact. I'm so nosey I can waste whole evenings flipping from site to site looking at stuff (if I'm not already spending the whole evening on hitched!) As a result I don't really look at that many as I'm too scared to get into them and then I'd have even less time!

    Thanks for posting that again, I tried it find it after you'd written about it before. She's so pretty, and I like the clothes she posts.

    I like:

    http://milkbubbletea.blogspot.co.uk/

    and https://cherrymenlove.com/

    The latter has turned into a shop though and I feel like she's sold out, but good luck to her. Great example of a blogger creating a real career and becoming 'famous'. I also read a few craft ones that I doubt anyone would be interested in!

    I read the odd post if someone links to it, and it seems interesting. I don't read any religiously though.

    I follow a ton of blogs - 125 to be exact! I read them pretty much every evening.

    They're mostly makeup/beauty, a few fashion/food/lifestyle ones thrown in there. I use bloglovin to read my blogs which I find really handy, as I can just scroll through the blogs I haven't read yet. Admittedly there are some on there that I skip every time a post comes up, but I try to read most of them. If anyone is interested in finding new blogs, the list of who I follow is here: http://www.bloglovin.com/gibbigan/following Smiley smile

    I've only ever bothered with Marian Keyes and Dawn Porter.

    I've just started following a few beauty blogs and have downloaded the bloglovin app today which I've found really useful.

    I prefer watching vlogs on youtube to reading blogs. I think its because I am lazy.

    Me too! I first found the Gala Darling thread through a link on twitter and after I had spent DAYS on and off reading that, I then ploughed through the xojane thread. Then I started reading ones about blogs I hadn't even read yet! The one on bleubirdvintage is particularly entertaining.
