Once in awhile I get curious, and want to check out what other local people are writing and publishing on their blogs. I've tried Googling occassionaly, but find the wade through the thousands of hits tiresome... there are so many references to "his/her/their Waterloo". I figure that others might be doing the same, so I decided to maintain this list of local bloggers. I'll add to it as I find more. Please note that I might not even read these blogs and I take no responsibility for their content. I reserve the right to remove links to blogs that I find offensive, illegal or in poor taste, but don't take that as an endorsement of the ones that are in the list. I'll try to keep my focus on the Region of Waterloo Ontario, which includes the larger cities of Waterloo, Kitchener and Cambridge, but also some smaller towns like New Hamburg, Elmira, Wellesley, Breslau, Conestogo, and Ayr among many other fine places. You could try the following searches yourself...

• Google.ca: region waterloo blog
• ca.search.yahoo.com: region waterloo blog
• search.sympatico.msn.ca
• Feedmap.net listing for all of Canada

With all of that said, here are some blogs that I've come across. They're ranked alphabetically by the author's last name or the blog title for blogs with multiple authors. Add a comment if you know of any other blogs, blog locators, or if you find a mistake, and I'll hopefully be able to add it to the list. Enjoy!

James Bow pointed me to a Blogroll site he's setup called the The Waterloo-Wellington Bloggers Association. Go check it out. I'm almost tempted to stop maintaining my list here :) If you're looking for blogs that I personally read (at least semi-regularly), check out what I'm reading on Bloglines, a web based news reader which I've been using successfully for some time. You could also try the Google Blog Reader.
