For example, EMC has a landing page for their blogs (http://www.emc.com/community/index.htm) and so does NetApp (http://www.netapp.com/us/communities/communities-blogs.html). Instead of taking 8 or 9 of the spots with two vendors that are a small part of the overall storage blogging world, use their landing page to point to all of their collective bloggers so that more of the other vendors are visible. Just a thought.... - Calvin Zito Thu, 16 Jul 2009 10:40:09 +0100 http://www.storagemonkeys.com/index.php?option=com_myblog&show=nominate-the-top-vendor-blogs.html&Itemid=136#comment-227 Agree with Greg that it should be on here: http://developer.nirvanix.com/blogs/strategies/default.aspx S - Sunshine Mugrabi Thu, 16 Jul 2009 08:14:57 +0100 http://www.storagemonkeys.com/index.php?option=com_myblog&show=nominate-the-top-vendor-blogs.html&Itemid=136#comment-220 In the better late than never category, I nominate Steve Foskett and whichever one of his blogs fits this category;D Go Steve, Go, you have my virtual vote!

May the best blog win--or at least the most popular kid in the class. ;) - Sunshine Mugrabi Mon, 13 Jul 2009 14:46:39 +0100 http://www.storagemonkeys.com/index.php?option=com_myblog&show=nominate-the-top-vendor-blogs.html&Itemid=136#comment-141 suprising to see my name amongst these admittedly impressive folks. thanks for the vote(s) of confidence! cheers, dave - Dave Graham Wed, 01 Jul 2009 06:03:21 +0100 http://www.storagemonkeys.com/index.php?option=com_myblog&show=nominate-the-top-vendor-blogs.html&Itemid=136#comment-140 Gratifying to be mentioned twice in these comments -- without the need to shamelessly self-promote! Hopefully, vendor-written blogs will gradually improve over time, and we can aspire to a broader industry discussion. Or maybe not! P.S. I'm proud to be a Storage Monkey! -- Chuck - Chuck Hollis Tue, 30 Jun 2009 16:38:48 +0100 http://www.storagemonkeys.com/index.php?option=com_myblog&show=nominate-the-top-vendor-blogs.html&Itemid=136#comment-126 Mark, Chuck, and Anarchist for the win. - Chris Fricke Thu, 25 Jun 2009 15:12:30 +0100 http://www.storagemonkeys.com/index.php?option=com_myblog&show=nominate-the-top-vendor-blogs.html&Itemid=136#comment-124 Always a great read with smart tech analogies and witty humor.
