Regular bloggers will already know that Matt Mullenweg is the co-founder of the WordPress blogging software and founder of Automattic, a company that runs WordPress.com and Gravatar. He has just published an article on cnn.com entitled 10 blogs to make you think. His stated job as the co-founder of WordPress is to help many more people start blogging, and his top ten list is a great place to start reading if you are new to blogging, or a seasoned vetran.
His first recomendation is Scripting News by Dave Winer, who pioneered the development of weblogs, syndication (RSS), podcasting, outlining, and web content management software. We particularly like Dave’s blog about the Android operating system, Droidie. This is a blog about the Droid phone from Motorola with the Verizon service and Android 2.0 operating system. We are interested in anything to do with Android OS at the moment, having just taken delivery of an HTC Hero.
Other notable blogs and sites nominated by Matt include Open by Glyn Moody, Raw Thought from Aaron Swartz (check out his FBI file!) and the daily comic XKCD
