Chosen blog: (Web Designer Depot and http://www.webdesignerdepot.com/)

I have chosen this blog because it blogs about topics that interest me. The blog is a joint effort and collaboration between leading designers around the world which contribute a wealth of expertise on all fields of design, such as coding, typography, Photoshop tutorials and more for web & graphic design. The main author seem to be anonymous but can be contacted by e-mail. There is a new post every 1-2 days. The target audience seems to be web & graphic designers or people interested in design. The blog itself is very pleasing on the eyes. It is a popular blog, on a post that was a day old, there was already 11 posts.

My favorite post is "To School or Not to School" It is a post that I can relate to and shows the advantages and disadvantages but overall it favored "to school". I left a comment on this post http://www.webdesignerdepot.com/2009/10/to-school-or-not-to-school/#comment-555178
