An editor asked what my favorite blogs are.

They're the ones by my favorite writers, of course.

And some by people I never heard of, don't even know their names.

In the mainstream of personal finance, the writers I like to read who blog include:

Tom Petruno at the L.A. Times (A former editor of mine). He's got the Money & Co. blog.

Floyd Norris at the New York Times: Notions on High and Low Finance.

Liz Pullam Weston from MSN Money

Then you have to go out of the loop a little bit. I read The Big Picture for the macro perspective.

And, My Open Wallet. It's some anonymous young New Yorker shares her money obsession. It's a far-off world to me, with a touch of fanaticism. Many days, it's interesting.

Also in the out-there division, Freakonomics is usually interesting. Economics with a twist, based on the best-selling book of the same name.

Tell me if you've found any other good ones.
