The Small Wave

(http://thesmallwave.com/)

Written by Tom Reestman.

A casual glance at Tom’s site would leave a reader with the impression that it’s just another Apple analysis site. Quite the contrary. Tom takes the time to think hard about what he writes about, and has a knack for analyzing other companies in the tech industry and finding their flaws and strengths.

The best part of Ben’s writing is his ability to write reviews. He understands what readers want to know, and he provides insightful and entertaining reads. He also provides a fresh perspective on the tech industry and social media, and the material he links to is often just as good.

Great user interface design rewards users with little “aha” moments when they discover something new. The Finer Things sites seek to collect and showcase these little gems of UI design on the Mac, iPhone, and web.

52 Tiger

Written by Dave Caolo.

When he’s not writing for TUAW, Dave writes about technology (Apple in particular) on his personal site. His analysis is usually spot-on and insightful. He understands the industry and contributes a great additional voice to the subject.

Apple Outsider

(http://www.appleoutsider.com/)

Written by Matt Drance.

If there were only two blogs about Apple to read, one of them would have to be Apple Outsider (the other would be Daring Fireball). As a former Apple engineer, Matt knows the issues better than many others and provides excellent analysis as to Apple’s current and future strategies. Put simply, he’s a man with a great deal of sense and foresight.

Written by Kyle Baxter.

Kyle is a master of common sense. His writing covers everything from technology to economics, and he often avoids common conceptions to promote a better, smarter idea – and he’s usually right. Not only is his writing excellent, TightWind’s design is likewise a masterpiece and worth showcasing by itself.
