Friday Dec 30 2005

As most of you will know, I'm Dutch and as everyone of you will know, I'm running a tech blog. I was just thinking about the amount of blogs I know that share these characteristics with me. Being Dutch and blogging about technology, design and internet issues in general. I also like to think my blog is a quality one (har! har!) so let's add that to the list of criteria. I guess this posting is mainly for my Dutch audience when it comes to commenting but it could be nice for the English speaking bunch as well when it comes to discovering nice new blogs. So here goes:

What blogs do you know that are:

about technology / design / internet
run by (a) Dutch blogger(s)
of high quality

It doesn't matter whether the blog is in Dutch or in English. I myself choose to blog in English to reach a larger audience but it's fine to list blogs that meet the above criteria that are written in Dutch.

I'll kick off with a few good ones I know myself:

There's gotta be more of 'em. Let's hear it!

I’m Dutch – born there in Best, Noord Brabandt in ’53. That’s really the only thing that qualifies my blog as being a Dutch blog, since I’ve been a Canadian since 1961. Nevertheless, that does qualify me to hold dual citizenship.

I worked in computerized DBMS development for 7 years in the days of DOS, before the internet, and am now idling and writing occasionally on my blog and on the Helium web site which earns me a ltittle bit of money (darn little). I’m also going through the motions of looking for a taxi to commandeer here in Toronto. I have my license.

I like to examine ongoing investigations into all things pertaining to science and technology and occasionally offer my own theories on the fundamental nature of reality. Some of my articles represent a considerable amount of research, and others are merely rhetorical commentary, albeit original. Enjoy!

One or more comments are waiting for approval by me.
