Xenoblogs: Weblogs from outside the USA

Terminated forever. I haven’t updated this page in 15 months and never will again. I have snapped out of my denial, you see.

Ideas have their time, you know. Back when Weblogs were new and uncommon, yet also americentric, a list of Weblogs from outside the U.S. was relevant. Now you can just do a search, including a search for other guides (see list below) that are easier for their maintainers to actually maintain.

All the Xenoblogs submissions since 2002.02.17 have been filed and will probably remain filed forever. They certainly will not be added here. And as of this date, any Xenoblog addition sent in will be deleted unread.

It’s been a slice.

On the other hand, I intend never to take this page down. That’s not what I do.
