Good list.
One I also want to refer is – http://divaswithcents.com/
On Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/DivasWithCents.
I'm refering this site on behalf of my girl Milah.
It's similar to some other relationship blogs, with the exception that it discusses all aspects of finance in relation to relationships. It also discusses personal finance, employment, budgeting, money management, entrepreneurship, the economy, investing and financial planning.
Great blog to check out and gain knowledge on money matters. Ladies we all know – "no romance without finance." *smile*
I would have loved to have made the list! I have a black literature and culture blog titled Black Girl Lost in a Book. I visit your site often and already linked it to my own blog roll. Happy reading!
My recent post Tuesday Teaser: I Am Legend
Naysue I'll check you out. I love Literature and books.

no disrespect to those listed, but ah…i'm started to get more interested in roms than dates, lol.
Apologies, I was out of town when this post ran. If you have any tech-style blog suggestions, please drop them in the comments section for our readers. Thanks!
I had no idea there were so many Black Blogs, I am looking forward to perusing them.
Good list, however i'd also recommend http://www.agb-style.blogspot.com for guys looking for tips on fashion/grooming and life.
If you haven't read the Black Talking Points Blog at blacktalkingpoints.com you are definitely missing out on some of the most provocative, informative, and interesting information concerning African-Americans ever published. I guarantee you have never read a blog like this. Period! Black Talking Points will inform, educate and amaze you with the depths of the black experience, debunking more than 500 years of white, racist scholarship that depict the black race as an ignorant, divided and inferior. Read for yourself and see how your thinking on a whole range of subjects changes.
Fantastic list! Thank you for including We Got Kidz!
Oh my, let me first say I am so sorry I hadn't stopped by to say thank you for including us on your list! I did not get a notice that you had linked to the site. I really appreciate you including Still Dating My Spouse. Yes it is very important to understand that you must continue to date because "To Date Your Spouse is to Know Your Spouse".
Good List. Add on Blallywood.com under entertainment and you'll be all set!
