To be updated … a list of blogs.

Jim McKeeth - on using large LMs to create a small LM (?!) :slight_smile:

I’ve been wanting to keep and record a list of all the current and old sites I come across … but I haven’t had the mental discipline to add that as an ongoing mental background process.

We will get there slowly.

For now …

THIS IS THE YEAR … for a DELPHI BLOGS LIST !

I’ve created a Google Sheets page that I can quickly access anywhere I have Chrome, and/or my phone.

And my permanent background task for the rest of 2025 will be to make a note of Delphi Blogs when I bump into them.

( Delphi Blogs - Quick Access - Google Sheets )

It will just be a heap of links thrown in a cupboard until I later tidy it up … but I want to start keeping them in one place.

If you think of it, please help build the list.

That’s a great idea Paul.
Thanks for doing this.

There is quite a few there now.

Approximately 50 … 80.

I guess it has been bottled up for a while. :slight_smile:

Format still very rough.

You might want to add Alexander Alexeev’s EurekaLog blog to your list:

Nice list. I have a big list of blogs written by MVPs and Tech Partners. When I get a chance I’ll send them over for you to add to the list.

The only trouble with these lists is they atrophy when people don’t update their domain name or swap to blogging elsewhere (or, as in the case of people like Danny, pass away :cry:).

I wonder if writing an app to ping blogs and websites to check they are reachable would be a good idea. The same app could also add sites it discovers that are not on the list. That would be kind of cool. Hmmm. Actually, that’s a pretyt good idea. :grin:

Isn’t it more or less the purpose of these sites?

A real good idea

Thanks for reminding me that they list the sources.

I’ve never actually drawn from those sites (BeginEnd, DephiFeeds) myself … I’ve “always” known of them, but in my mind they are like a RSS broadcast of new posts coming out.

Quite a number of the things I want to find and read are now living in Archive.Org

Allen Bauer, Barry Kelly, Chuck Jazdzewski, even ADUG blog posts … are all things I want to keep a connection to.

Hence the list I’ve collected so far.
And I’ve bumped into really great stuff in digging up links.
