Any suggestions?
I’m already working on a similar list as a follow-up to my podcast article.
But Tom, where are the links? I’d like to add a few of these to my Google Reader account, but I don’t want to have to search for them. Very sloppy, very sloppy…
Links? please?
I’m a lazy blogger. Links are pending.
MUCH better. Thanks for beind bullied into providing links. 😉
