Couldn’t get any sleep tonight (yet), so I decided to go through a bunch of learning and teaching related blogs and pick up any that interest me. Mainly I used the controversial top 100 educational blogs list and the Edublog 2006 awards basically opening all (well, at the time of this post, not all of them yet) of the blogs up, and reading through what they have on their front page. If they got my interest, I subscribed them to my blogroll in Bloglines (I use a web service for my blogroll since I use several computers and it’s a headache trying to sync Firefox livebookmarks on several instances).
Here’s a javascript thingie that lists the current contents of my Learning folder in my blogroll. But first the disclaimer: these aren’t necessarily the best blogs in the world. But they’re the ones that I’ve found most interesting to me. But I’m a techie as well as a psychologist, so my tastes may be a bit different from yours.
And since this is a javascript thingie, it’s unbloglike in the sense that it will change according to what I have in my Learning folder in Bloglines, and not stay what it was when I posted this note.

Terve!
You might want to add this one: http://www.downes.ca
It’s by Stephen Downes (not me, so this is not advertising! :D) and it also acts as an aggregator of many other useful resources… it’s a mine of interesting things.
Great work on LeMill, by the way! 🙂

I agree that Stephen’s web is an interesting read. And I’ve actually got it in my “Digest” section of my bloglines subscriptions. You see, I’ve found that I’m intimidated if I have like 200 unread posts in the “learning” category, so I’ve moved these short, frequently updating feeds into Digest. And Stephen isn’t all about learning, there’s other stuff as well.
And LeMill is being right now tested by 80 teachers in several EU countries. I’m eagerly waiting feedback.
