Oxford blogs

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. Pandora’s Blog
    Run by Kate, who I met at the first Oxford Bloggers’ Gathering on October 29, 2005.
