Link Love - The Worthy Cause Edition, Part 3

Posted by Bill

Ok, time for some further linkage for those web sites that have been kind enough to help with this week's pledge drive via donations and/or publicity ...

First up today is the Backcountry Conservative. Now I don't read BC daily, but I'm certainly over there a couple times a week and always immediately after every big story breaks on the internet, as Jeff provides the inevitable comprehensive roundup of links to blogs that have covered the story. An excellent example of what I'm talking about is his post covering the recent execution of Spc. Keith M. Maupin in Iraq - he's got the story completely covered. Be sure to bookmark/blogroll one of the best places on the net for breaking news and Carolina regional coverage.

Next up? Babalu Blog, your one stop shop for Cuban news and events, from the perspective of a patriotic Cuban-American living in South Florida. In addition to being a useful clearinghouse of anti-Castro stories and events, Val's got a big heart, and it comes through in a lot of his writing. Always a pleasure, Babalu is typically one of my daily reads. And I'm not just saying that because he looks awful pretty in drag.* Happy Blogversary, Val.

* Long story, but it was for another really good cause.

And of course we've got the Watcher of Weasels, organizer of the Watcher's Council, a contest which showcases some of the best blogging of the week, typically from the right side of the 'sphere (though I repeat myself). In addition to keeping the members of the Council in line and asking for worthy submissions from bloggers trying to publicize their work (hint, hint), the Watcher lays down some pretty straightforward, entertaining analysis of the news, and provides a weekly "roundup of roundups" for all your blogging carnival needs.

And the last bit of link appreciation goes to Joe Gandelman of The Moderate Voice. I first discovered Joe via his regular weekend guest-blogging efforts over at Dean's World. Even though Joe's got some mighty big shoes to fill in his bid to satiate Dean's regulars, he's done an admirable job, laying down some high volume and high quality blogging over at his site and in Dean's stead. Check him out.

Sorry, but look on the bright side: it will score you traffic in the middle of a text heavy post.
