Richard Harter's World -- a Bloglike Webpage

OK, this site isn't a Blogger, Wordpress, Typepad, or any other kind of a blog system based website. Nope looks like it is a hand-coded log of personal observations, editorials photos, humor etc collected for the past 10 years. Perhaps "tepidly" bloggish, but close enough for this collection. Probably gives a good indication of what could be done before "blogs" became the poorman's CMS system. With all the stuff on this site, nearly everybody should be able to find something interesting, funny, amusing, or just plain worth reading...of course there is a lot of other stuff there too. Thanks for Bernie Hunhoff of SD Magazine for noting this comparatively unknown gem of a site.

Prairie Roots Blog

Prairie Roots blog is pretty much planted as a close neighbor to Madville Times. Not to be too cute about it, Erin is Cory's wife. Her blog emphasizes sustainability while practicing permanence on the great plains. Her profile suggests she has at least two full-time jobs, but not quite said that way. But, check her blog. I guess if you can find her blog you can find his and vice versa...so check their interesting linklists too.

Haggard News Blog

This is a blog I just never quite got into my RSS feeds or reader. Never mind that, here is the data from Haggard News "About": Haggs ,Canton, South Dakota I'm an idependent guy who enjoys discussion of politics and stuff on the internet.
The header image indicates..well you can read it too..."A Progressive Blog". Today it looks like discussion of SD news and local Canton, SD. news and views. So, get another moderate progressive view on some areas of South Dakota and stuff interesting to South Dakotans. Haggard News has been online since 2006. Categories suggest an eclectic taste in stuff. Somewhat less than very regular posting however.

Madville Times Blog

Cory Allen Heidelberger Lake Herman, South Dakota, United States has been editing Madville Times for a few months or a year. Easy to lose track of time when blog years are the equivalent of ...er..5 years of herding cat years or something like that. More seriously, Heidelberger covers the news around Madison, SD and Dakota State U pretty well and intelligently discusses many local and state issues...some issues in very good detail.
So, worth keeping track of the tracks at Madville Times...no it is not Mudville Times just because it is close to a lake.

Holabird Advocate Blog

You will just have to look at the Holabird Advocate Blog. I haven't figured out how to describe it. People not from South Dakota might want to know that there is a Holabird, SD. somewhere between Pierre and Huron, South Dakota and it has a population of..well, I don't know. Our SD map doesn't show a population for Holabird. Maybe it disappears when the writer and his family turn out the lights. For some reason the Holabird blog does not load correctly in Firefox Browser...kind of sprawls across the screen...but check the blog for a change of pace....shifting down into a lower gear on Highway 14...

The Ideal News and Views Blog was started by Lowdon date. His blog discusses South Dakota news and politics, but centers discussion on the Ideal, SD area and community with photos from the area and a ranching, farming, pioneer perspective. Now and then he presents novel ideas or topics and photographs. Has a WWII veteran perspective as well as a history of Democratic Party experience. Target Audience probably adult, but OK for children as well.
