Any list like this needs to have Gini Dietrich on it:

Owner of one of the most successful communications blogs around, hugely respected speaker and businesswoman. Check her out:

I'm glad to see it's not the usual suspects Danny. Good to see new writers get a bit of spotlight. I found new folks here. Great list.

This is a ridiculously useful post Olivia. Picking out some good ones to add to Reader now...

Thanks so much for including me with other amazing political blogs!  And I think you're the first one to dub me "hilarious!"  ;)

You must be adding Brittany, Barefoot Foodie, to your humor list: http://barefootfoodie.com 

Also, Rachel, A Southern Fairytale, need to on your food list: http://asouthernfairytale.com/

Mom: Morgan Shanahan The818.com
Food: Bakerella.com

...and of course I'm an Expat/Mom/Feminist all rolled into one :) TransatlanticBlonde.blogspo...

No Sport category? 

wow

Ana White  Ana White | Free and Easy DIY Furniture Plans to Save You Money should be added to the design category.  She develops free blueprints for home furnishings specifically geared toward women.  She is terrific!

Olivia-this blog post is awesome... So resourceful, thanks!

Tha ms for rounding up some great women writers. But, you forgot science!! There are many women writing about some awesome science, and doing a hell of a job. Please include this category on your next round-up. Thanks!

Interesting list... but I'm not through it yet and I'm seeing that you've got Julia Roy listed as still being at Coach - she left that quite some time ago and is "the Vice President of Marketing at Manilla, a new web-based service backed by the Hearst Corporation."  As it says in her about page.

Still, as Danny says - any list without Gini in it... :)

Oh and it's Amber Naslund at Radian 6 and her blog is Brass Tack Thinking. http://www.brasstackthinkin...

Thanks for that! There's a redirect set up, so we're all good to go ;) 

Holy Moley! To be included on the short list of six amazing greenies is such a honor! Thank you Olivia! Now off to check other great sites! Thank you for this comprehensive list. YOU rock!!

How about

http://www.anneofcarversvil...

From fashion to flogging, telling women's stories

She always connects dots.......

I agree.. I also find it cool just like the one I learned from this website... http://garyvolkdesign.blogs... ..check it out

Thank you so much for including me on this list - I appreciate the honor.

Thank you so much for including me will all of these fierce women!!!

What an intense, fabulously useful post! I was honored to be included, but I've also bookmarked it so that I can start subscribing to some of these amazing women. Many thanks for your hard work and great information.

Hi Olivia, thanks for including me with the big girl bloggers. I knew about only a few of these design/writing/politics/nonprofit blogs--had great fun going through your list and discovering all the rest.

Thanks very much for including Shrinking Sisters on the list!

Well, you just flattered the pants right off me!  Thanks so much for including me in such a talented group!

I'm honored to be on this list.  Thanks for the love!  Muah, C.J.'s Mom at RaisingMyRainbow.com

Wonderful list... but what about Dooce (Heather Armstrong)? I check hers daily along with about 4 or 5 of the ones on your list.

Submitted for your consideration:

"One small Mexican American woman against the world."

Wow, it's an honor to be included in such an awesome group of ladies -- including many of my blogging heroes. (Yes, I have blogging heroes. What I would LOVE would be some blogging action figures. Someone needs to get on that. Maybe The Bloggess could sell them on her Zazzle store? I feel they would be a big hit.)
Again, thank you so much!

I have this feeling that The Bloggess could sell anything, considering how popular she's made Beyonce the chicken. 

Thanks for all of your suggestions, y'all! Keep them coming...

Also for your consideration in the humor category: Hoosiermandy.com Thanks!

Fabulous list, with some of my favorites and lots of new blogs to check out!  One you may have missed is Melissa Baswell, the blogger behind the fashion/design/inspiration blog Bubby & Bean.  She's an eco-fashion designer by day but her blog features all kinds of cool and inspiring project, thoughts, and ideas.  http://www.bubbyandbean.com

are there no photography blogs out there?  Here is mine...beccaphotog.blogspot.com  not that it's all that fab, and I'm just getting into the groove of things...but as someone who say's they are a sucker for photographs!!  here is an opera singes photo blog.  pretty neat!  http://www.asingerssuitcase...

I found this through The Bloggess, and I am thrilled to see it! I see some good friends already, and I will be checking some of these out. I also have a few suggestions for you:
The Pursuit of Harpyness - www.harpyness.com.
The Rotund - therotund.com
Two Whole Cakes (which used to be Fatshionista) - blog.twowholecakes.com

Happy reading!

Whatta bout this

http://raeleigh.wordpress.com/

Oh wow, that is serious funny. I'll have to create an Irreverent section just for you :) 

For your consideration under travel:  http://storiesthataretrue.w...  The American author lives and works in Antarctica. Yes, *Antarctica*. Before that, it was New Zealand. She's about to leave Antarctica, alas, but you can always read her old posts about it, and who knows where this intrepid woman is off to next!

No science section?

That's an excellent idea for the next iteration, I'll add it!

I'm Heidi Ferrer www.GirltoMom.com with 3 million hits in the first year, in the top Alexa 4% of all websites. Check me out for humor, too :-)

I love Hyperbole and a Half, but she hasn't posted anything new in months!  She is apparently busy writing a book or something, so no new posts since May!

What kind of blog do women bloggers always follow?

I'm afraid to answer this because I feel like it might be the beginning of a joke...

Thanks. I will read them

Thank you so much for having so many topics covered!  So many articles geared to women only focus on parenting - as if that is the only thing that should be of concern to wormen.... 

WOW such an amazing list! I can't wait to go through it and subscribe to a bunch. I'm so, so honored to represent travel with these three amazing ladies. And you said such wonderful things. Thank you so much!

Great list! A lot of new lady bloggers I haven't heard of before! :)

Thank you very much for including me in such an inspiring list!  Will have to add many of these ladies to my Google Reader!

I think you should have a DIY catagory and include http://www.younghouselove.com/

Oh YEASH! That is an excellent idea, and one I hadn't thought of, thank you for that!
