Blogs are great in that we're able to share ideas and build a community of information and camaraderie. As a storage blogger, I'm always on the lookout for fresh voices and ideas that can help spark my own creativity, which in turn I hope to bring to you in the form of posts you want to read.

Here are a few of the places I've been hanging out lately. Most are on my blogroll on the right of the toolbar.

Yahoo! Open Source Group
Unlike the SAN Yahoo! group I'm linked to, the content far outweighs the advertisements for dates or viagra. Some good info and smart people here.

ITToolbox
A much nicer forum, as it's moderated for starters. Also, the knowledge here is at a high level. Definitely a place to seek advice or information.

Storagezilla
This one's just fun. Mind you, it's informational, but the conversation you seem to be having with the host is quite relaxed and inclusive. Worth bookmarking.

Storage Switch
A really nice blog for fixed content storage information. Lots of great info, and linkst to even more blogs with helpful advice.
