10 Tumblrs you Need to Follow NOW

If you’re not on Tumblr yet (or have no idea what it is), you need to set one up and join the world wherein status updates and emotional blog rants meet funny videos, old movie screenshots, new music and the drama of anonymous comment boxes. There are literally millions of blogs to follow and you’re definitely sure to find at least one that fits your interests (try “f*ckyeah___[insert title of favorite hobby, book, movie or TV show here]____ to start), but if you’re looking for a few more blogs to spice up your Dashboard, check out some of our favorites…

Web Spy: Bloglovin

[There are over 100 million sites on the Internet. 100 million! You might think you know about all the important ones (CollegeCandy, Gmail, Google, Facebook…), but there are thousands of other sweet sites out there (like We Are Hunted, Paper Back Swap and Stingy Campus) and more showing up every day! We get it – it’s not easy or fun sifting through the crap and porn to find those gems, so we’re gonna bring the gems to you. Just sit back, kick up those feet and allow us to introduce you to the diamonds in the internet rough.]

I like reading blogs, but sometimes it can be really obnoxious to log on to each site separately (especially when it’s not updated very often) and to try to remember web addresses.

I wanted to introduce all of you to Bloglovin, my new obsession. It’s helps simplify my blog reading by allowing me to read all blogs in one place (like Google Reader), but takes it further by helping keep track of which ones you’ve already read and presenting it all in a simple, clean, reader-friendly interface.

Tuesday’s College Blogger Shout Out

shout.jpgIt’s been awhile since we’ve shouted out to some talented college bloggers out there. Sorry about that, people. Things have been pretty busy around here what with spending hours layering on the scarves just to go outside for a coffee run, and the rest of our day spent mustering up the energy to get to the gym.

Life in the CollegeCandy office is grueling.

Anyways, here are a few of our latest faves in the college blogging world. These talented bloggers make us laugh, which is pretty much what we look for in a good blog. Thought provoking articles and hard hitting journalism may be desired by some, but around here we just want to laugh.

And drink beer.

Can your blogs get us beer? Send em over.

1. Not Drugs: It’s not drugs, but it’s still sorta addicting. Like we imagine crack would be.

2. Column5blog: These kids are smart and funny, a lethal combination. And by lethal we mean awesome.

3. THE College Blog: We pretty much only love these guys because they think they are THE place to get college info. (Um, have you heard of us?) But they do have some good shiz going on.

4. In Blog We Trust: This girl is funny. We want to be her Facebook friend.
