Anyone got any good blogs they can recommend? Preferably about tech, software, games, computer science and stuff.

Thanks

I follow a few dev blogs specific to particular games or game design sucha as:

Radiator DevBlog

Gaslamp Games

Tom Francis (Gunpoint)

Gamasutra

General Gaming / non-dev blogs:

Augmented Visions

Sneaky Bastards (focus on stealth games like Thief or Deus Ex)

Then there's video-blogs

Zero Punctuation (witty, 5min reviews of games, but Yatzee also has a blog section I believe)

Jimquisition (game news & opinions)

Extra Credit (tons of game-design and industry thoughts)

Total Biscuit (Let's Plays, Game News, Opinions etc.)

Angry Video Game Nerd (mostly comedy reviews of older gamer but also has other stuff)

Spoony Experiment (game reviews / thoughts / culture

And for the heck of it, food industry / food politics ones I follow:

Fooducate

Weighty Matters

Food Wishes (awesome video recipes with a very charismatic host)

Curious to see other replies, would definitely like to extend my list as well (particularily with video design/industry/news blogs)

Nick's Blog, particularly his Damn Cool Algorithms section, is interesting to read through. I'm posting from mobile so I can't link properly, but here's a link paste: http://blog.notdot.net/tag/damn-cool-algorithms
