A great aspect of the web, is the way it allows for people to share information beyound time and place. Paradoxically, a poor aspect of the web is the way the same information accumulates and clutters over time. Despite the excellent search- and filtering services online, we all know that sometimes its just hard to find the most relevant information.
For instance, I like to look at blogs. I try to follow my favorites every day. With millions of blogs available, however, I find it difficult to choose which ones to spend time on. So, in an effort to offer you a helping hand on this matter – lets call it my own little filtering service – I have listed five of my favorite blogs below.
Who knows? Maybe one of these blogs will have just the information you are looking for!
It’s Nice That is a blog that promotes the best work from studios and individuals across the creative industry. The selection is varied but alway high end – an irresistible online source of inspiration.
Magnum in Motion features a really interesting series of photo essays from the world renowned Magnum Photographers. The format that combines photography and audio tracks (typically the voice over of the photographers) poses an engaging kind of storytelling which is excellent for the web.
The Selby is a great blog for looking at photos taken in the private homes of a varied bunch of artists, designers, writers and other cultural personas. The photos are intimate and personal as well as candid and inspiring.
JJJJound is good for browsing through an interesting collection of vintage- and contemporary photos. Although it’s hard to pinpoint, the common denominator of these photos could be labelled, ’things that are cool’ – as in beautiful people, stuff, places and moments in time. Whatever the label, it’s well worth a visit.
