In case you haven’t picked up on it – I loves me some WordPress.\u00a0 I think it’s one of the most monumental additions to the web developer’s toolbox to date.\u00a0 Almost every project I’ve done in the last couple of years has been built on the WordPress engine, even if it didn’t need to be.<\/p>\n

Needless to say, it’s good to know that I’m not the only fanatic out there.\u00a0 There are some great blogs that are 100% dedicated to the WordPress cause.\u00a0 It is through these sites that I keep up to date on the latest news, hacks, tweaks, and bugs in the rapidly evolving world of WordPress.<\/p>\n

These are my ten favorite blogs on the subject of WordPress, did I miss any?<\/p>\n

WPCandy<\/a><\/h4>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nOne of the best WordPress blogs out there.\u00a0 It’s chock full of news, resources, theme and plugin reviews – the list goes on.\u00a0 Not to mention it sports the best logo ever!<\/p>\n

ThemeShaper<\/a><\/h4>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nIan Stewart’s thoughts and theories on making WordPress the best it can be.\u00a0 Also the home of thematic<\/a> – probably the prettiest theme framework out there.<\/p>\n

Pro Blog Design<\/a><\/h4>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nOkay, I’m cheating a little with this one.\u00a0 Pro Blog Design isn’t exclusively <\/em>“WordPress only”.\u00a0 But I’m willing to bet that every article on this site is useful for any WordPress enthusiast.<\/p>\n

We Love WP<\/a><\/h4>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nA design gallery that only showcases sites built on WordPress.\u00a0 It’s inspiring to see the multitude of ways people utilize this platform.<\/p>\n

WPelements<\/a><\/h4>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nA great blog that mainly focuses on theme development.\u00a0\u00a0 Be sure to check out the free and premium themes – some great work there.<\/p>\n

Hack WordPress<\/a><\/h4>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nThis site is a great resource to any WordPress developer looking to update their bag of tricks.<\/p>\n

ThemeLab<\/a><\/h4>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nA site that showcases and reviews WordPress themes.\u00a0 A lot of great themes are featured here, and best of all, they’re free!<\/p>\n

The WordPress Podcast<\/a><\/h4>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nBeing the podcast fiend that I am I had<\/em> to include this one.\u00a0 This is a podcast that reports on the news in the WordPress community.\u00a0 Though the updates aren’t that frequent, it’s proved to be a worthwhile subscription.<\/p>\n

WordPress Garage<\/a><\/h4>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nAn awesome site mainly focused on the technical side of running and maintaining a WordPress blog.<\/p>\n

WPscoop<\/a> \/ WPvote<\/a><\/h4>\n

\"\"
\nThis one is a tie because I can’t pick a favorite.\u00a0 These are two “social news” sites soley on the topic of WordPress.\u00a0 Think digg.com for WordPress news.\u00a0 Both are excellent resources and worth a visit.<\/p>\n
