What is BlogDay?
BlogDay was created with the belief that bloggers should have one day dedicated to getting to know other bloggers from other countries and areas of interest. On that day Bloggers will recommend other blogs to their blog visitors.
With the goal in mind, on this day every blogger will post a recommendation of 5 new blogs. This way, all blog readers will find themselves leaping around and discovering new, previously unknown blogs.
In the spiirt of BlogDay, here are my 5 picks:

Managing with Aloha
This blog (and the author's book) apply ancient Hawaii philosophies to our modern world. Delving into this (for me) foriegn world provides an invigorating mental challenge that allows me to think in new ways.
Chris Brogan.com
I came across Chris Brogan's blog through some common Twitter friends and I have been following him closely since then. Chris is all about digital community -- what it is, how it can be used, what it means for all of us. As I expand my own work into this realm, Chris provides a welcome guidepost along the way.
I hope you enjoy these blogs, especially if they are new to you.

Thank you for reading Managing with Aloha, and for recommending MWA Coaching to your readers. It is great to meet you, and I sincerely appreciate your taking the time to study the values of aloha with me!
I had first heard of Blog Day from Chris Brogan, and I read Jay's Dumb Little Man as well, however the blogs written by Keri and JoAnn are new to me, and I shall pay them a visit: Thank you for your sharing!
Thanks for all your great work! When I get to the islands again, we should have coffee and some shave ice.
Meanwhile, we'll keep connected through that thinking person's mental gymnastics you have mentioned :) the values of aloha give us a great playground to romp through.
