Who We Like on the Web and Why: September 2009

Here's what we link online these days
We’re on Twitter, we’ve launched our Facebook page. Sure, we’ll give you links to those in a minute, but every day, our team is on the lookout for the best on the web when it comes to:
- Things we enjoy reading
- Sites our families like to visit
- Bloggers we think “get it.”
None of the links below are paid. We’re pretty sure they have no idea we’re mentioning them. But when it comes to online content for families, parents and the web at-large, they get it. And FaceFile thanks you for “getting it!” We’re looking to improve our site, grow our readership, and establish a sense of community for our visitors, customers and readers. These are the people who show us how to do it:
@crocs – Well, Rob’s wife loves them. Rob even owns a pair now, too. We love that fact that they interact with their online audience, monitor their brand, and have a sense of humor. After all, not everyone’s going to love your product, but you can listen to the conversations like they do and laugh! www.crocs.com
@dadgonemad – We read this blog every day. While the language isn’t for the faint of heart, this is one dad that has a sense of who he is, daily struggles and, well, a great sense of humor to go along with it all. He speaks with parents, not “to” them, and we often hear Rob walking around the office quoting lines from this blog. www.dadgonemad.com
@mashable & @techcrunch – They’re at the forefront of social media and tech news and they keep our entire team on our toes. We have frequent and lively discussions in the conference room on a regular basis because of their articles. If you’re not following them on Twitter and adding their blogs to your RSS reader, well – your loss! There’s news in both for parents, tech enthusiasts and just folks like us who are trying to build a better product. www.mashable.com & www.techcrunch.com
@wiredmoms – Even if you’re a dad, this blog always has great tech content for parents. They have powerful and timely information on internet safety, cell phone safety and regularly review and rate various products. We like it when sites we trust do the legwork for us. www.wiredmoms.com
