As I look at Logan&#8217;s blog, I wondered whether we at Times and Seasons have been neglectful of our peers in the Mormon blogosphere.  I think we may have inadvertently neglected to discuss other LDS bloggers.  So here is a short post dedicated to that topic.  (Warning:  Post discusses Kaimi&#8217;s idiosyncratic blog-surfing preferences).<br \/>\n<!--more--><br \/>\nI know I read other members&#8217; blogs often.  In particular, I have enjoyed reading:<\/p>\n<p>Nate&#8217;s <a href=\"http:\/\/goodoman.blogspot.com\">Good Oman<\/a>, which often has interesting material (though less so now that we have diverted much of his energy elsewhere.  Mwuaahaahaahahah!).<br \/>\nMatt&#8217;s occasional musings over at <a href=\"http:\/\/stuartbuck.blogspot.com\">The Buck Stops Here<\/a><br \/>\nDavid Sundwall at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.asoftanswer.com\">A Soft Answer<\/a>, which <a href=\"http:\/\/www.asoftanswer.com\/archives\/000061.html\">may be coming out of its short period of hibernation<\/a>.<br \/>\nUntil its untimely demise, I enjoyed reading <a href=\"http:\/\/legalguy.com\/\">The Legal Guy<\/a>.<br \/>\nDave at the <a href=\"http:\/\/radio.weblogs.com\/0128987\/\">Mormon Inquiry Blog<\/a>.<br \/>\nAdam didn&#8217;t post often enough for me to really get into <a href=\"http:\/\/mandias.blogspot.com\/\">his blog,<\/a> but I certainly enjoyed discussions with Adam, Nate, Matt and others on the <a href=\"http:\/\/goodoman.blogspot.com\/2002_11_17_goodoman_archive.html#84955806\">LDS-Law e-mail list<\/a>.  (I recommend the list for anyone interested in the church and law).<\/p>\n<p>There are several other blogs that I have read from time to time and enjoyed.  The ones I can think of right now are:<\/p>\n<p>Those crazy anonymous folk over at <a href=\"http:\/\/elders.blogspot.com\/\">Metaphysical Elders<\/a>.  (Even if I do disagree with them from time to time).<\/p>\n<p>Gordon&#8217;s <a href=\"http:\/\/venturpreneur.com\/\">Venturpreneur<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/philosophenweg.blogspot.com\/\">Russell&#8217;s unpronounceable blog,<\/a> both of which are rapidly making their way onto my A-list.  I must confess I didn&#8217;t know about these blogs at all until I started with Times and Seasons, but they are very high-quality.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/msmorality.blogspot.com\/\">Michelle&#8217;s blog at Ms. Morality<\/a> (though if she&#8217;s <a href=\"http:\/\/msmorality.blogspot.com\/2003_12_01_msmorality_archive.html#107074721448071816\">married<\/a>, why isn&#8217;t she Mrs. Morality?).<\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"http:\/\/ripebananas.blogspot.com\/\">banana-blog<\/a> of our new <a href=\"http:\/\/timesandseasons.org\/archives\/000184.html\">guest-blogger Ady Hahn<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Two of our frequent commenters, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.libertypages.com\/clark\/\">Clark<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.braydenking.com\/weblog\/\">Brayden<\/a>, also operate high-quality blogs.  <\/p>\n<p>Finally, I have dropped in from time to time at <a href=\"http:\/\/allhandsandthecook.blogspot.com\/\">All Hands and the Cook<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ldscitizen.org\/\">LDS Citizen<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.geocities.com\/vodyanoi\/\">Geoff Matthews<\/a>, and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.geocities.com\/liahonajan\/index.htm\">Jan<\/a>.  I&#8217;ve enjoyed my visits, but am not yet hooked on any of them (which is probably good &#8212; the list of blogs I read regularly is getting pretty long, and my wife keeps having to kick me off the computer).<\/p>\n<p>I know I&#8217;m leaving out a lot of good blogs.  Which is why, at this point, I cede the floor.  Now it&#8217;s your turn, dear reader.  What Mormon blogs do you read?  For that matter, what non-Mormon blogs do you read?  The comments button is open, and the floor is yours.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I just noticed that my friend and ward member Logan Bobo now has his own blog.
