Welcome to the second part of our wrap-up of the best of 2008! This Friday, January 9, 2009 edition of On the Moneyed Midways features the best blogs we found in the world of business and money blog carnivals in the previous year.
This edition is a lot different from our normal fare in that we don't just read the posts a particular blog has contributed to blog carnivals throughout the year. Instead, we start with that list, narrow it down to those whose contributions to those carnivals were consistently good, and then we read through several months worth of posts on their blogs to narrow down the list further to those who are consistently excellent.
This year, we came across seven blogs that we hadn't previously registered in previous years who meet our criteria of excellence, routinely combining great ideas with great execution and providing great opportunities for learning and entertainment. The best blogs we found in 2008 are presented below....
