Important Design Blogs to Follow
My blog is just a drop in the ocean of blogs, but blogs are becoming much more than they were back in 2000’s when it was “cool” to blog. Now, blogging is more than just stating your opinion. It’s about letting the reader see your personality, dedication, loyalty, determination, selfness and courage. It is another extension to your bio and resume. It is almost impossible to describe yourself and your best qualities in a letter, brief bio etc., but if someone takes a look at your past posts, examines and compares the content, it might be much more beneficial, clear to see who you are.
I’ve made a list of blogs that I follow and think that any designer should too. Here is my list of most important design blogs to follow in 2011 and 2012:
