The Big Wide Open Web...

Following yesterday's reflections on networking I started searching for thematically linked blogs. I found quite a few, and interestingly enough, google was more useful than most bloeg search engines...

On the subject of harmonicas, there a nice blog called Cool Harp Links which narrates the travails of Dave who is learning how to play blues diatonic. I think a lot of beginners or intermediate players will see themselves in many of his anecdotes. Very nice.

A sligtly less direct route to harmonicas is Can't Count Sheep, a blog about many things not music related. However, it includes an interesting poem entitled Harmonica. The poem talks about a Lee Oskar ten-hole and makes a parallel between playing and kissing. Not entirely inappropriate, if I say so myself !

I also did a quick search on jam rock, and came up with two interesting candidates. Live Music Blog has a ton of infos, reviews, downloads and more besides. I don't find it extremely legible, so I haven't dug too deep yet, but there's a lot of data there. I was more taken by the appearance of JamBase Rhapsody, which is also packed with info and sexy looking too. Something tells me I have just found another excuse for procrastination at work !!!

Not legible? Text? Writing? Email me and let me know. I'm always working to improve, and this is my first go around as a web admin, so I just need a good kick in the pants to learn what to change, etc. Thanks.
