Photo Blogs Coming of Age

Today's New York Times has a nice feature on photo blogs, giving a bit of background on how they're used and how communities are developing around the images that people are sharing on the web. One of the featured starting points for finding great photo weblogs is Movable Type user (and unofficial Six Apart company photographer) Rannie Turingan's Photoblog Awards.

Like an earlier Slate story from last year, which featured sites like Rion.nu, the Times piece discusses the creative and beautiful ways that people are starting to use the weblog format to present their photos with a narrative context and a sense of community.

We love the unique and innovative ways that weblogs are evolving to better accommodate photos, and we'll be discussing in the next few weeks how TypePad has been designed to make photoblogging a lot easier.
