David Airey and TDC I couldn’t agree with more. two very inspiring designers without the hubris. Knowledgable, succinct and with the necessary skills.
I can’t speak highly enough of them. i look out regularly for them.
I’ll make some attempt at catching up with some of the others.
Thanks for the recommendations.
take good care and get as much joy as you can every day.
And what about the Lungs of Good Design?
Awsome list of sites.Thanks for giving us the OPML file, it make things much easier
Good list but the best one is excluded: Smashing Magazine
Awesome compilation! I’m proud to say I have about 80% of them on my list already. Thank you for helping me build my arsonal a bit larger : )
I already following most of the sites, but thanks for the list. It should keeps my Google Reader full ;).
Have I recently mentioned that I am really bored because of logos that uses rockwell as font? It seems, that all folks out there use this font because it’s so stylish… arg!
This is a great list with many excellent websites. Thanks!
Nice List, but I guess you missed WebAppers.com
How many of them offer actual original content though, instead of just round ups and lists?. You can’t beat A List Apart and CSS Tricks IMO

Mine favorite is I Love Typography – remember when I only started working in the web development niche I was so much surprised with how much our Art Director paid attention to typography. Later I understood this attention after I saw some examples of typography which totally ruined the message of the web page.
Thx for the great list! I’ve bookmarked some of them.
http://www.smashingmagazine.com should be in the list. 🙂
