Just as I hope you check this blog regularly, I thought I'd share with you some of my favorite blogs that I check on a daily (almost) basis.
Marketing Photos with Mary Virginia Swanson
http://marketingphotos.wordpress.com/
This is where I go to get an overview of what's happening in the Photo World. She covers both commercial and fine art events and is a regular at the Festivals and Reviews. This is an excellent site for learning about photo-related lectures in the So. Cal. area.
PDN Pulse
http://www.pdnpulse.com/
The professional photography blog by the editors of Photo District News - the only pro photo magazine really worth reading. This is a "news of the world" approach to photography, also great place to go to find out the latest scandals.
A Photo Editor
http://www.aphotoeditor.com/
This is Rob Haggart's blog, a former Director of Photography for Men's Journal magazine. It's important to get a feeling for how the other side (editors, art directors) sees things. This is where I get to see the most imaginative work happening in the commercial world.
Art MoCo
http://mocoloco.com/art/archives/cat_photography.php
The Modern and Contemporary Art Blog, I've attached the link to photography. This is where I go to see a wide range of contemporary fine art photography. The site covers all types of art forms, so photography is usually added every week or so. Check out the side bar on the right, there's a "White Stripes Holga from the Lomo Society" - they've got both a "Jack" and a "Meg" version.
I heart photograph
http://www.iheartphotograph.blogspot.com/
I love this site, every day you'll find several bodies of work plus, on the right side, a photo of the day. Fine Art oriented, very wide range - from abstraction to narrative.
That should hold you...while you're at it, here's my "one a day" blog, Impermanence.

I was browsing blogger for Long Beach area and came across this one.
If this is a blog for a commercial photography program, why don't I see any photos here?
Thanks for your comment, good question. As a commuter school, with classes throughout the week and weekend, the blog was designed to be a central distribution space for information. We're in the process of working with the student club to create a space for imagery, which should be up within the next month.
