Six Apart, the creators of Typepad (the hosting service that I use for all my blogs), publishes a website called Blogs.com, aimed at helping visitors discover the best in the genre.
One of the site's popular features is a section called Top Ten Lists, where selected bloggers get to highlight sites others might find interesting and informative. Some recent business and finance-related contributors include Stephen Vita, publisher of Alchemy of Finance, the editor-in-chief of FiveCentNickel, and Russell Bailyn, publisher of Russell Bailyn's Financial Planning Blog.
In today's edition, entitled "Coming to Grips with the Great Unraveling - 10 Great Financial Blogs," I listed a few of the blogs that help keep me informed about what is really going on, as follows:
To be sure, there are plenty of others -- my RSS reader, for example, has more than 350 blog feeds alone -- so one shouldn't assume I could get by with just the sites listed above. Nonetheless, they represent an excellent starting point (along with Financial Armageddon and When Giants Fall, of course) for keeping tabs on a dangerously uncertain and fast-changing world.
Hi Michael, I'd like to recommend Phil's Stock World - www.philstockworld.com (disclaimer, I work on that great site, :-) We feature many of the authors on your list (inclusing a Zero Hedge section), and I'll look into the other two I'm not familiar with. Thanks - Ilene

Thanks for the informative list. I would also highly recommend Karl Denninger's Market Ticker http://market-ticker.denninger.net/
