It’s come round quick to that time of the month when we look at the newest (and newish) socialist, left and labour movement blogs to have burst into being. I make it 22 blogs all told. Understandably with the high profile student occupations blogs in some way related to anti-cuts protesting are starting to come

LibDem blogs is the cental pillar of the Lib Dem blogosphere. Its communual nature is emblematic of the LibDems. Everybody gets a fair whack and new blogs get the prominence they wouldn't otherwise achieve.

I asked in the survey how often you read various blogs. I list below all the ones more than 5% of you read at least once a day. It's interesting that many people think all blog readers read the same blogs. I think this is much less true now than it used to be. Blogs now have a much more diverse readership.
