Welcome to this week's
Guest Editor. My name is Will, and as you can tell from my photo I have
a silly sense of humor. I work at AOL as Vice President of Products and
Technology. Here I lead many of the product development team from our
AOL Silicon Valley campus in Mountain View, California. As you know, we
have a bunch of hard working employees, who work hard on AOL products
for you, and it's been my pleasure working with such a team. Vish on
the blogs team asked me to write a spot on this blog, so here
goes....
About
me....
I blog quite a bit --
WillSpeaking is my main blog that describes events going
on in the technology space - and sometimes just in life. I also blog on
AOL's Animalhubbub.com under the pen name of "thealleyforcats".
Every now and then I help the myAOL team out on
the myAOL
blog. Finally, I used to write on the
AOL
Pictures blog, though haven't done that for some time.
Thank you,
J-Landers!
I've seen so many great
bloggers that use AOL or AIM Journals. It is a delight to read your
thoughts, your ideas, your stories. I've seen some real tear jerkers
too. All I can say to J-Landers is keep them going! You really do make
a difference. If what you write can help someone else - give them
advice, help them through a rough spot or even bring a smile to
someone's face - well, that's the main
thing.
Here goes -
my choices.
Footprints
in the Sand is a delightful blog to
read. It has some great articles on it, and I love the cat photos,
too!
My
Photo Lounge. Did I mention I am a
photo buff? I like this blog - it's got some great photos, and some
great videos too.
Movin
on with MS. This blog is new, and I
am looking forward to reading blog entries, and for the support our
JLanders will give to our avid blogger. As I said above,
writing of your own challenges you can often help other people too.
Sometimes
I think is Krissy's very active
blog. With some very touching blog entries, and some great ways to take
place in photo contests this is a good read.
Calmwater by
JC. This blog has some
really, really good photos. JC works at AOL. She is a keen
photographer, and blogs on many subjects. Enjoy lots of her photos and
thoughts on travel, life and other things.
SomewhatFrank
is a really good blog written by
Frank Gruber. For technology people (ok, so I am a "geek"),
this blog will help you out. Frank created this to stay upto date on
technology and updates it nearly every day with what is going
on.
And
finally...
I know a lot more Journals are out there!
Happy blogging to all of you! Since I am originally from the UK, I am
happy to see UK J-Landers here too.

I would like to know why the Guest Editor and the highlighted/recommended journals are no longer on the BLOG AOL CONNECTION page? I have such issues with that drab ugly no personality page. It was for US in the the beginning, now I just don't get it. Especially since you have brought back some type of focus on journals of interest (take a look at the Blogger page).
Here is the link though I am certain you all have it. http://blogsofnote.blogspot.com/
Congrats on being guest editor Will and thank you for pimping my journal. I was surprised. It's only a couple months old and I hope to post more often since spring is coming. I love to capture the different seasons though I think the snow pics will be the only ones for another 10 yrs. LOL

I've been so out of the loop lately that I didn't even know the Guest Editor Picks was back in commission. Awesome.
And a special thanks to this week's guest editor Will for alerting me to an old friend's blog. Sammie stopped blogging a while back and I was thrilled to see her name on your picks.
Thanks,
Dorn~
