100 Must Read Design Blogs
In my daily search for design-related content I’ve come across tons of really stellar blogs. Recently I noticed that the list of sites I regularly check in on had far surpassed 100!
I know there’s no shortage of lists like this but I still wanted to share my discoveries with the Design Shack readers. Some of the blogs below are quite famous, others are fairly obscure. Most are specifically about design, others are more for supporting subjects like freelancing or photography. So without further adieu, here’s my list of over 100 must read (or watch for the video sites) design-related websites.

Link Lists
The sites below aren’t quite design blogs so much as sites that simply list links to design blogs. It sounds silly but it’s actually pretty nice to have tons of links aggregated into one place so you can be picky about your reading material for the day.
