Financial Blog Wars

A Long Time Ago (last November), in a Galaxy Far, Far Away (Manhattan)…I posted The Periodic Table of Finance Bloggers.  With this year’s follow-up, a tradition is born!

First, some caveats – I tried to include all of the blogs I keep up with at least semi-regularly.  There may be some newer or less frequently updated blogs that aren’t here – please no hard feelings if we missed you, there’s always next year.  I also didn’t include all the tweeters and video bloggers, many of whom I consider to be great in their own right.

This one’s all about finance blogging.

Anyway, here’s the 2010 list.  Enjoy you will…

    The Absent Game

    Concerning me and my husband we’ve owned additional MP3 gamers over the years than I can count, like Sansas, iRivers, iPods (classic & touch), the Ibiza Rhapsody, etc. But, the last few many years I’ve settled down to one line of gamers.
