1. Sarah Luczaj is back blogging on Pyschology, Philosophy and Real Life.  She took a break due to a death in the family and is now back.  So the blog will be worth reading again.  It is one I subscribe too (and you will find a link on my blogroll) - I find Sarah writes clearly and well on important issues and always with an eye to the practical.

2. I am someone who dislikes some of the antics of the Internet Marketers (I am thankful that the blogosphere is - usually - more friendly and collegial.  I think some of the antics of the Internet Marketers mean we in the blogosphere are in danger of  being seen as the used car salespeople of the new millenium.  So I am very gratified to see that Kimberly Bock has taken on the task of doing online marketing ethically.  Kimberley’s blog is Learning SEO Basics and as she posts more about ethical marketing - this is a new direction for her - should be very worth following.

3. I’d like to introduce you to another blog.  It’s on weight loss and is called weight-loss-through-healthy-living.com.  Now that’s an approach to weight loss that I can relate to.  I usually avoid recommending these blogs but I have a good feeling about this one.  This is due to the tone of the writing.  Ken, who writes the blog, is very down to earth, practical and devoid of hype.  He is still a little too much in favour of discipline for me (but my views on how damaging discipline can be are certainly in the minority).  He has a great variety of different sections on his blog and also links to quite a few resources.  If you are looking for a refreshingly direct and sensible approach to diet and exercise Ken’s blog is well worth a look.

4. While I’m on the subject of diet and exercise there is a good post about Sustainable Fitness on Take Fit.  They make the excellent point that the fitness industry is more interested in the short term while for our health we should be interested in what is sustainable.  It is well written, makes good points and leads to sensible steps that can be taken to getting sustainably fit.
