After a year of blogging, I’ve networked with many great people and now follow over 100 blogs. But before I started Canadian Finance Blog, there were only six blogs that I read every morning for almost a year. While they have all been included in my Friday Links many times, I wanted to do something special to highlight the sites that inspired me to start my own blog.
I asked the guys behind each site to let me know one of their favorite posts that they have wrote over the years. I also looked back to find one of my favorites from each blog as well.
