Ashley Frieze’s incredible.org.uk is packed full of great content, from the Haikulator™ to Apostrophell: the one person crusade to rid the world of misplaced apostraphe’s… genius. What’s more, it’s based up here in Newcastle, as is Mal Ross’ humorously written minimal.blogspot.com. That brings the Newcastle based independent site / weblog tally to 8, here’s a list [in alphabetical order]:

• bifurcated rivets - The well established weblog from Lindsay Marshall

• frownland.com - er… me.

• incredible.org.uk - Ashley Frieze’s simple but content-rich site [mentioned above]

• metroburner.co.uk - Documenting graffiti in Newcastle. Has a Blogger driven news section.

• minimal.blogspot.com - Mal Ross’ well written blog [also previously mentioned]

• pixelised.com - a joint effort from Leeds and Newcastle by Matt and Dan

• theoryshop.co.uk - A great independent venture from Jay. Has some nice photography too.

• xlab.co.uk - The weblog of my work colleague Phil Lindsay.

Maybe we can get an article written about us in the Evening Chronicle… or perhaps that’s something to avoid.
