Is there a list of game design blogs somewhere on the Geek? I'm interested in reading about the game design world from an up-close and personal perspective.

Several of the links in my blogroll are also about Games Design.

Thanks for the input everyone. I'm actually going to be working on a design of my own. I'm really interested in seeing what sort of materials others are using and how they are created. In particular, I'm interested in how to print cards from a home printer, create folding boards that look decent, and creating player tokens.

I blogged about the development my design Spatial Delivery on the Board Game Designer's Forum. There's some discussion of how I made hexes with artwork, and a decent card deck.

There are a number of blogs and a lot of discussion over at the Board Game Designers Forum (which is newly re-done and much faster and cleaner): http://www.bgdf.com
