Blogger let me down lately. Not able to FTP for a while…no clue why. We seem to be back in the saddle.

There are a bunch of new blogs adorning the blogroll these days. In fact the blogroll is an eclectic mess, and the more I look at it, the more I love it. I have it set to list the blogs randomly every time the browser loads my page, so there’s always a new treat at the top of the list.

At any rate, here are a couple of the newer additions:

• City Comforts Blog a blog about urban design, with some very smart commentary and linkage.
• Fast Company Now! from the writers and editors of the business magazine.
• How To Save The World from Dave Pollard, a fellow Canadian writing great stuff about blogging, environmental issues and community. (And he picked my blog as one of his favourite Canadian ones…thanks Dave…right back atcha)
• Smart Meeting Design, a collaborative blog and wiki from smart meeting designers Jack Ricchiuto and George Nemeth in Cleveland, USA.
• Positive Living from fellow Open Space Tech facilitator Alexander Kjerulf in Denmark, who is writing a book about happiness at work.

Sure these blogs all seem to be about organization, and it’s true that the blogroll has been padded with these guys since I closed Open Space (if such a paradox is possible) but fear not, there is still poetry, art and music to be had here. In fact it all seems to fit together so much nicer for me these days; that this blog can be about ideas as they hatch and wobble about in my brain. Call it a more honest relfection of the soul behind the blog.
