Blog reading/Extra reading

Hi everyone,

Any blogs that you guys like to check out for design ideas/continued learning? I'm still really new to this, so I'm looking for inspiration.

Thanks.

This is a good starting point:

There's a chain reaction that'll lead you to have your favorite blogs and educational sites bookmarked.

If you start following a few folks on twitter, like your favorite Treehouse instructors, you'll quickly find that you're expanding who you're following, and you'll get links to blog posts regularly. Twitter will 'recommend' others to follow, and you can quickly check them out. And in a lot of cases you can check out their websites.

Some of the tutorials here at Treehouse will have links to development tools or whatever. Some replies here in the forum will recommend or link to sites. Moderator James Barnett has been extremely helpful in this regard (Thank you, James!).

I've recently reached the point where I have to frequently clean up and organize my bookmarks into folders. I have my main go to blog homepages just in 'other Bookmarks'. Then I have folders within 'other bookmarks' for 'DevTools', 'Tutorial Sites', 'Blog Posts/articles' (this should soon be cleaned up into a couple/few topics or themes).

Anyway, I'm rattling.
