Top 10

I recently had the honor of being asked to do a guest Top 10 post for Blogs.com. My chosen subject: "The intersection of design and activism". It was nice to give some publicity to the blogs I enjoy reading. Check out my list HERE.

The best social advertising blog returns!

After a long wait the excellent Houtlust blog has returned as Osocio. As in the past the site collects the best of advertising/marketing for social issues/non-profits from across the globe, but the new incarnation includes extra features like news feeds, non-profit profiles, and a dictionary of terminology. Probably the biggest change is that Marc van Gurp, who ran Houtlust solo has added several new editors to the site from around the world (including yours truly!).

Osocio is a truly indispensable resource for anyone interested in the intersection of marketing and social good.

Blog Action Day: October 15th

There a lot of talk about the power that bloggers wield, so the folks behind Blog Action Day decided to test it out. Their simple plan: to have as many bloggers as possible post about environmental issues on October 15th. Will it make a difference? Wait and see or participate and see. More info here.

Iraq War Soldiers + Blogs = Peace?

Members of the Iraq Veterans Against the War speak out about the power of blogging at the recent Yearly Kos convention...




For more on the event read "Iraq: The 'Gift' That Keeps On Giving" from the Center for Media and Democracy.

EcoGeek

EcoGeek is nother excellent addition to the green blogging world. They compile green technology stories from across the blogosphere and also provide original articles like "Ask the EcoGeek".

Thanks Jessica!

Roll Call

I just added a few new blogs to our "Friends + Allies" section of the sidebar and I wanted to give them a proper introduction. These are folks who are writing about topics that are complimentary to the Another Limited Rebellion's socially conscious mindset.
Please check 'em out:

CreativEthics - Designer/Photographer Todd Zerger's socially conscious community blog.

Rebel:Art - German art/activism blog, lots of great visuals so you don't need to speak the language to enjoy it.

Stralunato - Spanish socially conscious design blog from Jacinto Lajas.
