The Granite Geek

David Brooks of the Granite Geek is a scientist extraordinaire with a New Hampshire twist. Do you want to know if "big people schuss faster?"

Or do you possibly want to learn about the latest in tech products. This blog is where you will find out.


No subject is too difficult, no problem too complex for Dave. He is a "man of steel" when it comes to brain-power. Stop by and say hi.

He is one of the "Best of New Hampshire Blogs"

P.S.: I have no idea how I missed blogging about him, since I've been a fan, and a regular reader of his blog for a while now.

The Suburban Ecstacies

Seth Abramson at The Suburban Ecstacies is primarily a poet. He received my JD from Harvard Law School in 2001, and a BA in English from Dartmouth College in 1998.

And so with that educational combination how could he resist the lure of writing about politics too. His blog aptly reflects his eclectic interests.

Although not currently living in New Hampshire, and so his roots are here. You will consider your visit to his blog thoroughly worthwhile.

Moments Forever Still

Babiebluz, the author of the blog "Moments Forever Still" is a New Hampshire resident (living somewhere in the Mount Washington Valley), and an autism specialist in the education field. Photography is one of her creative outlets.

During the past year (she began this blog in March of 2007) she has traveled a bit within the United States, and has posted some lovely photographs, both of people and outdoor scenes.

This blog is like a box of chocolates. You never know what you're gonna get.

Merrimack Public Library Blog

The Merrimack (NH) Public Library Blog is on the top of my list for Internet-savvy librarians.

They created a blog beginning in January of 2007 with several staff members as contributors.

They update this site on a regular basis. If you live in the greater Manchester or Nashua area, you are very close to this library and so you may want to take a look to see the great events they hold here.

Bricker's Blog

Lara Bricker and her toddler Willie are the primary focus of Bricker's Blog. An Exeter New Hampshire resident, you may have read her column "Mom's The Word."

She is occasionally delusional when it comes to moose. She created this blog last month (November), so give her a warm welcome, and maybe a few comments

Eric D. Knapp

Eric D. Knapp would do almost anything to get on the Best Seller's List, even considering revisions to his book's (Out of Place, Out of Time) cover art. Hmmm... EraCluck might just be hit!

His writing is tongue-in-cheek witty, and his genre is science fiction and fantasy. Blogging since at least June 2003, he's been around the block several times.

His Amazon.com profile states: "Knapp has been writing since the first grade, when he was awarded his first of two Young Author's Awards. Since then, Eric has graduated with a communications degree from the University of New Hampshire, and has studied literature and fiction at the University of London. As a telecommunications engineer and freelance technology writer, Knapp has contributed to industry magazines such as 'Telecommunications', 'Exchange', and 'ISP World'. He has recently been rewarded with the iUniverse 'Editors Choice' award for his newest novel, 'Out of Place Out of Time'Coincidentally, that book is available for sale on Amazon.com... (hint! hint!)"

Knapp also has a short story posted at hackwriters.com, called "Nine Flights, Ninety Five Steps."

The only think lacking on his blog is a way for visitors to comment...

Saint Anselm College Blog

The Saint Anselm College Blog is produced by the folks at Saint Anselm (please don't pronounce it AN-SLUM!) College in Manchester New Hampshire.

Of course right now many of the articles are politically-oriented (surprise, huh?), but the majority of the posts appear to be college announcements (focused toward students), and articles about faculty/staff/alumni in the news.

The maintainers of this blog are technologically savvy, and they produce a news podcast that is easily accessible.

Even for those who are not particularly interested in the college, you can learn some interesting things.... for example, one of their alumni (Class of 1977) Mark Sullivan was named director of the U.S. Secret Service a year ago. Actually I think I met mark when Al Gore was "wrapping the NH State House in red ribbon" a few years ago at an event I was coordinating.

A superior blog! Four stars for presentation and content.
