Leeds Blogs web ring

Leeds Blogs is a web ring for blogs that are based in and around Leeds, West Yorkshire or the surrounding area. The ring was created in August 2003 to help Leeds people read about what is going on around them, and to highlight Leeds-based blogs to anyone else who is interested. Membership is open to anyone with a blog based in Leeds or the immediate surrounding areas.

To join the ring, start by reading the membership guidelines. If you're here to see what the Leeds blogging community has to offer, view the ring's site list. If you have any questions or need help in joining the ring, drop an email to your friendly or check out the web ring help pages.

Progressive Managers' Network has joined the Leeds Blogs web ring.

The Progressive Managers Network is for managers who are looking to develop their own management practice and make themselves and their organisations more effective. The Network blends training, online forums and informal discussion groups to help managers to learn, experiment and improve their performance as a manager. The network is led by Mike Chitty, an experienced trainer, coach and consultant. Mike is a Graduate of Common Purpose Leeds matrix programme, 2006 - a leadership programme designed to give participants the skills, connections and vision they need to lead most effectively, both at work and in the wider world.

Dough Diary has joined the Leeds Blogs web ring. A Leeds-based trainee journalist writes and rants about whatever takes his fancy.

The Leeds Blogs web ring is alive and kicking, but you may have noticed that updates to this website rather dried up some time ago. Due to some technical problems that I've not had the time (or the bravery) to try and resolve, I've been unable to make updates. The issues are now resolved, so you'll see all the new additions to the ring here as they're added. To keep up to speed with these, subscribe to one of our newsreader feeds - see the links opposite.

Change to membership guidelines
In consultation with existing ring members, a minor change has been made to the membership guidelines. To be accepted into the ring, our member blogs must have been written in English - this restriction has now been lifted. Del Vinalopo a Yorkshire, a blog in Spanish, becomes the ring's first member to benefit.
