Can anyone recommend some good French-language blogs?

I used to be pretty high-functioning in French, but it turns out you actually have to practice to retain fluency. Who knew?

I'd like to get back to being able to read the language (speaking it is another matter), and would prefer some reasonably well-written, entertaining blogs. I thought you folks might be able to help.

Also, if there are any cool online magazines (newspapers I have covered), that would be helpful too. Thanks.

I would recommend Douze Lunes, for one.

Thanks for that huge turd of a so-called web site Mick. Not helpful, not funny, not good. It is filled with copyright violations, lies, hypocrisy, and wacked-out theories of the mis- and uneducated. The site is a big gaping anus absent of satire, humor, irony, or revelation. It's the refuge of far-right nutbags without the stomach for the future.

Response by poster: Thanks tenseone, Mo Nickels. Not what I was looking for, Mick, but congratulations on nailing the URL after all.
