We don't need this kind of lists anymore. If you want this just check http://delicious.com/popular/

Thanks for sharing that, del/popular is on my short list of sites I visit daily. I pick out any gems and add them to my own del list.

However the content changes daily and is often a mere reflection of what is popular that day on Digg/Reddit/Techmeme etc.

awesome! i never thought of that. thanks.

This list immediately lost any credibility with Sposky as #1 when he hasn't written an article about development in (at least) over a year.

It's sad that out of a list of 100 blogs, only 2 are authored by females.

To be fair, there are 14 that are authored by multiple authors. Perhaps a few more females are hiding in there?

I did think of that, and while some are all-male, it was hard to tell with the rest because they had no obvious author list.

Even so, the 'various' blogs are in a minority, so even if every one had a female author, it'd be heavily biased towards men. It's no wonder we have so many women in the industry when those that are don't talk about it.

Seth's Blog on #3? Argh...

The Coding Horror blog is at #2. That implies a bad relevance measure.

Coding Horror is like comfort food. It's not very healthy, but it makes you feel better.

Sometimes I feel like I can't program and I can't write. Then I visit Coding Horror, and I don't feel so bad anymore. At least I don't write book reviews for books that I clearly haven't read.

hey, the real title is - Top 100 Blogs for Development Managers (Q3 2008). SO this title is misleading. Also Joel and Coding Horror are so 2006. ;)

OK, I imported the OPML to Google Reader. This should be interesting.

I'm sick of blogs.
