Ron Nurwisah, Boy Reporter

I added a few of my friends to the blog roll on the right and took out some old links. Boing Boing and the Sartorialist don’t really need my links, they know I love them and everyone reads them anyway.

I do want to highlight three new additions to the blog roll. Three women whose friendship and intellect I’ve enjoyed over the years. In no particular order.

Without a Yard

Meghan Warby is probably one of the smartest (and probably coolest) PR people I know. Hell, if more flacks were like her, journalists wouldn’t be annoyed by them so much. She doesn’t just get social media, she thinks about how all that Facebooking, tweeting, blogging can be used for good. The fact that she knows all the cool music and can shake it on the dance floor are also pretty damn hot.

Through the Looking Glass

My former co-worker Sarah Millar is one hardworking, dedicated journalist and an inspiration for any young journalists out there who are despairing about their career or the industry. The fact that she earned the respect and admiration of a roomful of boys at the National Post sports department also counts for a lot.

Canadian Girl Out and Aboot

Journalist and poet Alexis Kienlen has a pretty sweet life and I’ve always admired how after a long day of journalism she manages to find time teaching writing to teenagers. Also her dispatches from the heart of Canada’s food industry are fascinating reading.
