Hi Alice and all;

There are a lot of interesting map-related blogs (some map librarians
involved too). I refer to some of these while searching for new and
different maps for the Baseline "New Maps" column. I am not in the office
(on the desk instead) so can't send links from a few favorites, but do have
the NEMO blog link in hand. Granted it's new and began as a meeting blog,
but it does exist and will grow.

take a look at these:
<http://ccablog.blogspot.com/>

<http://www.urbancartography.com/>

Or for a bit of a list, go to this Google search I did:
<http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&rls=GGLD%2CGGLD%3A2004-28%2CGGLD%3Aen&q
=cartography+blog&btnG=Search>

(cartography blog were terms used. other terms would work too).
