Chance Meetings: Journeys in Random Blog Land

I believe the next blog>> button that takes you to a random blog is one of the best little buttons ever invented. Hours of your spare time can be pleasantly filled by perusing a variety of blogs from all over the world.

The trouble is, the haphazard world of random blogs has been invaded by distasteful, flag-worthy blogs which occasionally rear their ugly head, as well as the all-too-common single-post ad-filled junk blogs designed to make money from AdSense.

Therefore, I have decided to do you all a favour, and list some good quality blogs I've come across during my erratic wanderings in the wilderness known as Random Blog Land. Now you don't have to sift through the junk for yourself!

A Passion for Photography by Tony Thompson is, as you might have guessed, a photographer's blog. Have a look through his archives; there are some real gems in there.

The author of Tokyo Girl Down Under, although very anonymous, writes about everyday events in a nicely-flowing story format. Each post has clearly been given a great deal of thought.

In New Hythe Wildlife Blog, Steve Nunn posts photos of wildlife within a mile of his home. His pictures are just beautiful; this blog will not disappoint.

And in Strangers Among Us, Bullwinky, mountainbikehound, JamesF, Matt and Scott take photos of people they see in the places they go. It's a great concept, and the photos aren't too bad either.

I realised that three of these four are photography blogs; so perhaps my randomness isn't so random after all. Don't worry though, there's more to come!
