Blogging about blogging

(Wow, how meta!)

If you're a blogger or know someone who blogs, here's a series of blog posts you ought to check out. (How many times can I say "blog" in one sentence?)

Connie and Heidi of digiscrapinfo.com discuss setting up a blog, publicizing it via Google, using a blog reader to read the latest posts from your favorite bloggers all in one place and more. Great information all around!

Which brings me to my next point: I'd love to set up a blogroll of the best digital scrapbooking blogs around. Please leave a comment with your recommendations--you can mention your own if you'd like, or let us know who else is doing a great job. I'll review them in the next couple of weeks and start putting together a list.

One of the most active digiscrapping blogs, changing two and three times a day, is the Studio Matters blog at Studio Girls, https://www.scrapbookgraphics.com/blog/.

And Trish Jones's CT has its own blog, The Outback Pack, http://trishjones.typepad.com/outback_girls/, that's full of scrapping ideas.

I second the commenter about Misty Cato's blog. I'd also include Traci Sims at http://www.your-digital-dream.com/blog/
because she's friendly, talkative, and gives away stuff ;)

And the store blogs, some have been mentioned, but also
http://www.scrapoutsidethebox.com/blog/

There's a lady who goes by the name Hummie who posts a lot of tutorials:
http://blog.hummiesworld.com/

And of course I'll mention mine just because:
http://www.brandiwhitedesigns.com

There's a blogger who goes by IKEAGoddess who lists freebies regularly, but the address escapes me at the moment.
