This page offers a hand-edited list of about one hundred (100) blogs which cover UFOs. Obviously this is not an exhaustive list, however many UFO bloggers offer links to other blogs they like (blogroll). You may also want to check the UFO podcasts and UFO forums and mailing-lists pages.
Blog Tip: If you are unsure where to start, you are welcome to subscribe (free) to the UFO Updates RSS feed I monitor myself. The UFOupdates feed is syndicating posts from about two dozen blogs, covering both UFO news and history. For many topics involving the UFO phenomenon, one has to draw conclusions based on imperfect, incomplete or poorly reported data. I always appreciate hearing from others who have taken the time to reflect on the issues. Disclaimer: the blog posts of this feed don't necessarily reflect my opinion, in fact in the past I have occasionally cringed when reading some of the material posted. You can join via traditional RSS (any reader e.g. GoogleReader, MyYahoo, MSIE7, Firefox etc) or by e-mail via Google Feedburner. In response to popular demand, the same UFOupdates feed is also available at Twitter and Facebook.
Daily news scan about unexplained phenomena (not specializing in UFOs), conspiracies, "alternative history" and the paranormal from a variety of sources.
- UFO @ Google News - Google News is a computer-generated news site that aggregates headlines from 1000s of news sources worldwide. Note: There is a ton of fluff on the Internet that passes for "UFO news". A cursory search for the term "UFO" on GoogleNews will result in many hits. A lot of the hits are spurious and many are sensational nonsense that appear to be random ideas of a writer masquerading as informed commentary. Maybe one in ten or twenty of the hits are worth looking at more closely, although even with these, most turn out to be a light that someone saw moving through the sky - in other words, very tentative sightings. An irritating trend these days is for some journalists to use the topic of UFOs as filler, when they have nothing else to write about. Invariably, these filler pieces are ill-informed and normally serve only to further spread misconceptions.
