  1. Color is my Weapon Everything Beauty
    http://colorismyweapon.blogspot.com

    The blog is a beauty blog and some my dismiss it. However, I find the blog interesting because she shows girls tricks and techniques that can help boost their self esteem. Also, she explains that beauty is not just on the outside its on the inside too.

    Have you ever met a girl that you wanted to say "GIRL you should eat that makeup and maybe you'd be beautiful on the inside too"!!

    "beloved"

    The most interesting thing about this blog is the blogger. Amy Groeschel is the wife of successful Pastor Craig Groeschel from Lifechurch.TV.

    Her husband has published book after book but he's not the only writer in the family; Amy Groeschel publishes her own project, weekly.

  3. American Cowboy Chronicles
    http://www.americancowboychronicles.com/

    The blog is interesting to me because it has all these ideals that I always want for my blog. Most of the posts are quite lengthy, but it is very thorough and informational while some are slightly controversial.

    A cowboy does not only love horses, embrace a traditional lifestyle, but also gets busy to write a blog. Yes, Tom Correa who is a professed cowboy from small town Glencoe, California is a very fine blogger of matters that hits his heart the most, politics.

    Pairadime exposes local artists and producers on the web. Also, the blog is interactive to the readers because they allow inspiring artists to submit their work to the blog.

    Steer away from radio music. There's more out there than what you hear in your car.

  6. Deadspin - deadspin.com

    Deadspin looks at the world of sports from a different view compared to longtime powerhouses like ESPN and Sports Illustrated. Their creative and thought provoking posts can be ridiculous and/or crude, but they are entertaining.

    "Deadspin is the crude watchdog of all things sports and and pop culture."

    The most interesting thing about this blog is that it covers all the entertainment that happens in one of the world's most populated and fast moving cities. I've also been following the blog for a long time and seen it grow from the main blogger to an entire staff, which I find very inspiring.

    Why would you want to know about Bollywood and the Bombay circuit unplugged?

  9. A Cup of Jo
    http://joannagoddard.blogspot.com

    1. I have just recently started following this blog and I fell in love with it. The first thing that caught my eye was simply the layout, but the next thing was that she wrote about her life in New York. NYC has always held a special place in my heart so I've had an interest in learning about how people survive the city that NEVER sleeps.

    2.That old saying, or cliche, "the first step is a doozy," comes to mind when I think about Joanna Goddard's journey to become a full-time blogger.

  11. 1. Mae is local, she attended the same university, and we have a few mutual friends.
    2. She attended law school, lived in another country, and put it all aside to become a professional blogger.

    1. Royce has tapped into a sort of hybrid-blogging where he combines Twitter updates during games with blog posts and a message board that has developed into his own brand. T-shirts are sold by local businesses that he puts out every season and he's built himself up from nothing.
    2. I haven't got a starting sentence just yet, but I bet it'll knock your socks off... I hope.

    This blog has an alphabetical list of the drinks that the admins have made and the links to other alcohol-related blogs. His layout is also easy to read.

    This blog has a Mixology Monday, which I took as an opportunity and challenge to taste new drinks.
