    Matt Pedlar

    I know a lot of dudes that know a lot about technical stuff. This guy takes the cake.


    Kman

    The theme is Rants, Raves & Recommendations. All three, all good, all the time.



    Mike Christie

    An oldie, but a goodie.


    Kevin Smith

    One of my favourite writer/directors. He carries a blog and updates it now and then. Look out for movie sneak peaks.

    This is a great daily visit. Lots of interesting stuff to keep you busy in the down time. Another design guru.
