Each person is unique and each one of us finds inspiration in different things.  Yet there are a lot of commonalities where by many people find inspiration as well.  This blog, 2inspire.us, is quite effective in bringing together pieces of news from all over the world with the overall aim of striking a sense of hope and inspiration from its readers.  From business to technology to health to justice to education – this blog seems to cover it all.  It is much like reading a news site but with a big difference – the topics are well-chosen and written to inspire and not merely to present the news.  It is a refreshing change.

Laptop theft is common in the Philippines, so there is a need for people to watch out with their belongings. K Villa, being a concerned citizen, has taken matters into her own hands and set up a blog where aggrieved Mac users can post the serial numbers of their stolen Macs, Serialmacs.blogspot.com.

This writer especially likes the header: “Is yours on the list?”

Let’s hear it for concerned citizens; and when opportunity presents itself, we should do the same!

BlogActiv is:

an “expert generated content” Web2.0 site focusing on EU affairs. It aims to become the premier source for opinions, discussions and views on the EU.

Being focused on European issues, its content naturally has quite a passionate and activist-like feel to it. However, a reader or site visitor would wonder if the website’s color theme actually works against the blog. In this writer’s opinion, the happy white, blue and green colors work against the passionate and politically-focused theme of the blog’s content. It is this writer’s opinion that a tri-color theme would work better: Blue/Black/White or Red/Black/White, in order for the blog to be taken seriously. The green accents lend a lighter feel to it, which makes for an impression of the blog being made up of less serious stuff.

But admittedly, this blog community delivers a lot of sense and attacks the issues surrounding Europe quite incisively. One aspect that more than makes up for its shortcomings. On the whole, an excellent, informative blog-site; just don’t mind the green accent.

“Noiblau” is a blog on Spanish and European news, politcal and current affairs, opinions and alternative points of view, in English, by a Spanish expat in Shanghai, China. It is one person’s opinion on the religious issues and news that affect Spain and Europe.

Highly opinionated to the point of being brash at some points, if political critique is your kind of daily fare, then you would immensely enjoy Noiblau.

Step into the world of Spanish issues, and feel the passion to the point of wrath that Noiblau has for the things that affect his country.
