Oxford blogs

Please note: I no longer live in Oxford and no longer update this list, except when people contact me. As such, it may include some blogs that are no longer active and it may exclude important new blogs. To suggest changes contact me.

I thought I should create a centralized listing of Oxford blogs, as a means of keeping track of the community. Blogs that don’t include enough information to categorize, based on a cursory examination, have been filed under ‘other.’ Blogs are added in the order I discover them. These have all been located through Technorati (a blog search engine) or through links on other Oxford blogs. Blogs that haven’t been updated in months will not be added, and should eventually be removed if present.

People who I’ve met:

1. Storyteller’s World
   Run by Tony Price, a priest from Oxford who I met at the first bloggers’ gathering.
2. Antonia’s Blog
   This blog is run by Antonia Bance, Labour Party member and city counsellor in Oxford.
3. Honorary Proletarian
   A socialistic blog, run by Mike.
4. Consider Phlebas
   Run by Robert Jubb, who I met at the second Oxford bloggers’ gathering on February 21st, 2006.
