The Blog Blog.net would like to give a special shout out to Laughing Squid. This very interesting, insightful, and entertaining blog has just broke into the Technorati 500. Laughing Squid was one of the first blog’s I added to my own personal RSS feeds and was a primary inspiration for me to begin the Blog Blog.net.

Laughing Squid is based in San Francisco. Along with having a kick ass blog, Laughing Squid also offers web hosting services. I highly recommend using this service. Here is why:

Founded in 1998, Laughing Squid Web Hosting is an independently owned and operated web host, based out of San Francisco, that focuses on providing dependable web hosting services to individuals, artists and bloggers. We are open source geeks who are here to rescue you from the endless void of impersonal and unreliable web hosting.

Unfortunately for us, the Blog Blog is wrapped up in a contract with another provider for the next couple of years. We plan on making the switch then.

Scott Beale is the mastermind behind Laughing Squid. Among his many talents, he is an excellent photographer. He also hosts other creative blogs: Squid and Santarchy & Sanatacon. But more on those in later posts…

So be sure to check out Laughing Squid. They are one of the few links on my blogroll. And don’t forget to pick up one of these!
