Blogs about blogs, bloggers and blogging.
Some days it seems like there are more blogs about blogging than blogs about, er… other stuff. And let’s face it, who’s got time to sit and read them all? I had considered creating a blog about blogs about blogging, and I guess i could have called it blogsaboutblogswatch.com but that might have just confused the issue further. Plus, at least 5 other people would have done the same thing, and then we’d eventually need to create a blog about blogs about blogs about blogging.
So instead, I’ve put together a quick guide to the first 10 of those blogs and bloggers who blog about blogs, bloggers and blogging that I could think of. That should clear things up, right?
Problogger
Who should read it: Bloggers who want to learn how to manage their blogging time more effectively, build their readership, and make the most of revenue earning opportunities.
Why you should read it: With over 3 years’ blogging experience, around 16 blogs, a network start-up under his belt, and a 6-figure income solely from blogging, Darren knows his stuff. Actually, that’s why he’s running a 6-figure annual blogging income, rather than a 6-dollar annual blogging income like the rest of us.

Jack of all blogs
Who should read it: Bloggers who want to learn how to swear, provoke other bloggers, start fights, cause mayhem, wind people up, and just generally rub people up the wrong way. But in a good way, too.
Why you should read it: Because you’ll learn how to swear, provoke other bloggers, start fights, cause mayhem, wind people up, and just generally rub people up the wrong way. But in a good way, too.

Blogebrity
Who should read it: Bloggers who secretly want to read about themselves.
Why you should read it: Because one day you might just read about yourself.

Workboxers
Who should read it: Bloggers who want to make their blogs profitable, more search engine friendly, and more successful. And stuff.
Why you should read it: Because Scrivs really does offer an informed, coherent, credible, logical, insightful and straightforward point of view about blogging. And stuff.

Performancing
Who should read it: Bloggers who prefer reading about how to improve their blogging, instead of actually blogging. Oh, and bloggers who like lists. And buzzwords. And back slapping. And high fives. Probably.
Why you should read it: Because you really do prefer reading about blogging to actually blogging, stupid.

Successful Blog
Who should read it: Bloggers who are into readership rather than revenue.
Why you should read it: Because you’ll pick up some good, honest, genuine, and down-to-earth advice that’s more about content and community than clicking on ads.

Blog Herald
Who should read it: Bloggers.
Why you should read it: Because it’s kinda like reading a half-decent newspaper about blogging, and at the same time it’s kinda not. That makes perfect sense to me. Seriously.

Blog Network Watch
Who should read it: Bloggers who own blog networks, bloggers who’d like to start a blog network, and bloggers who blog for a blog network.
Why you should read it: Because blog networks are cool. And because you’re nobody if you don’t have a blog network of your very own. ;o)

Pajamas Media
Who should read it: Actually, the term here is ‘rubberneck’, not ‘read’. As in road traffic accident.
Why you should rubberneck it: I can think of a few reasons. Like, because “the most wasted of all days is one without laughter.” Or, because “men need laughter sometimes more than food.” How about, because “laughter is the sun that drives winter from the human face.” And maybe because “at the height of laughter, the universe is flung into a kaleidoscope of new possibilities.” OK, I didn’t think of any of them – I had to look them up. But you get my point.

By the way, these weren’t in any particular order. Oh, and if you’re wondering, the domain name ‘blogsaboutblogswatch.com’ was still available as I wrote this entry.
Incidentally, so was ‘blogsaboutblogsaboutblogswatch.com’.
Go figure.
