Lisa,
You’re welcome. Thanks for the tips, I can use all the photography tips I can get.
Nice list. Keep up the good work.
Thanks for the write up Steven and for the picture too
You really do get around the blogosphere 
I don’t understand how can You be so active and do all that job. I wonder how You organize Your workflow, because coming up with something new and creating big roundup is very time consuming.
Great job – big fan of this list.
Nice rundown. Some great reading that I missed this month. Thanks!
Dainis,
Throughout the month I star items in Google reader as I come across them, and then at the end of the month I just go back through the starred items and half of them are already there. I also go back through my Delicious bookmarks for the month. The majority of these items each month come from those two sources. It saves a lot of time.
Thanks a bunch, found a lot of interesting websites in general in this list. I’ll be feedreeding you
.
I’m in the research phase of buying a drawing tablet and all signs point to Wacom. Also, the bamboo seems like it’s an entry level piece of equipment that will quickly outlive it usefulness to a semi-professional. Meaning the intuos is the way to go.
I would be very interested to read your opinions on drawing tablets in general, and your recommendations.
John,
I’m only researching them myself. I’ll probably be buying an Intuos.
Great job, thanks.
