It is time to start thinking on what to do with these few months left until the end of the year, new projects to start this fall,….

And today it’s also BlogDay. This year, O should have prepared this a little bit more, but I have not. Preparing your blog list for BlogDay is like preparing your the gift list for Xmas time, you always want to do it in advance, with lots of time to carefully think about what you put in the list, but at the end you end up doing it in a rush in the last minute….

Anyway, this is my list of five blogs for this year:

  • Pasta and Vinegar: I don’t know where the name of this blog comes from, but it is a very interesting blog about design and technology and its interaction with space and society. It is in the line of Jan Chipchase’s Future Perfect (which I cannot list it today because I already did last year…)
  • Barcelona Photobloggers: BlogDay is about blogs you have discovered lately. Well, since I came back to Barcelona, I’ ve started to get more involved in photoblogging, and I’ve discovered quite a lot of good local photobloggers. Since I cannot list all of them, I link to the blogger’s blog. It is in Spanish, and it includes lots of local interest information, such as photo exhibitions and competitions, but even if you don’t speak much Spanish, take some time to look at the photoblog links to see some of the stuff that local photobloggers are doing….
    (Barcelona Photobloggers is, also, the organization through which, if everything works OK, I’m going to have one of my photos exhibited in a museum. Even if it is only for a few days and as part of a visual projection, it’s a way to start…)
  • Space and culture: another interesting blog that touches the topic of the interaction between space, culture. society and technology
  • Streetpulse: as you can see from some of my latest posts and how this list is evolving, I’m getting more and more interested on urban spaces and street photography. This blog kind of combines both interests.
  • Metroblogging in Rio: There’s no Barcelona Metroblog yet (I’m registered to start writing as soon as there are four more bloggers from BCN, but it seems that there is not much interest in metroblogging from Barcelona…), and I think that last year I already listed Bangalore’s, so for the time being, lets read the blog from one of the coolest cities on earth….

An this is it for this year.

Happy BlogDay to everybody

I’ve been a little bit more active on my photoblog, but I guess that is easier to grab some old photos, write a title and post them than writing a blog entry that makes some sense (as if my other blog posts made some sense…)

Anyway, enough excuses and lets get back to blogging….
