Because we’re good little nerds, the Mable’s Crew is constantly scanning the Interweb for new and interesting things of note. In our quest to find products, services, and companies to spotlight, we also naturally come across a great many rad blogs. We were as shocked as you. Other websites… with blogs… that are feature interesting goodies? No way. So without further ado, here are some of the product related blogs that make our hearts pitter patter…

With it’s sarcastic take on pop culture, My So-Called Strife has become a daily read for us. It’s reminiscent of X-Entertainment (a simile I take seriously, for XE is amazing), and features huge product collages and reviews that obviously took a bit of time to create. Kirkkitsch blogs every weekday, which adds up to a lot of excellent content. His sidebar, despite recently being the topic of a little Internet drama, is also jam-packed with linkworthy sites and well chosen banners. His Cafe Press store features “kitschariffic” vintage images, some with sassy, snicker-inducing text. OK, I’m done gushing now.

Home Tone is actually part of a huge network of blog sites, but like it’s name indicates, this particular blog focuses on our homes. They update frequently with ideas and products that help turn a house into a “personal heaven”, and their categories are expansive and well divided. They also have a sidebar that begs mentioning, as it’s equally useful.

A good weekly visit site is Strange New Products, which presents the “weirdest, funniest, stupidest, and ingenious new products entering the marketplace”. Not unlike a car crash, it draws you in, despite the often asinine nature of the products being featured. SNP is also part of a large network of quality sites, with Orange County Memories being our favorite. (Hey, we’re Southern California natives, too.)

If you’ve got an interesting blog (with a shopping, product, pop-culture, or other quasi-related topic) that you’d like us to check out, give us a holler (our contact info is on the right) and we’d love to check it out.
