Feed Suggestions from A to C?

Always having talked about being a big fan of others work more so than my own, I wanted to spend some time plugging those who deserve to be plugged. When looking around to for source to plug from my feed subscription list looked like a good place to start.

Asa Dotzler – Known as the community coordinator for several Mozilla projects, Asa is a guy that we can all relate to. Love Firefox or hate it, I would suggest you subscribe either way. You are always bound to find something of interest here.

Chris Pirillo – How could you not have much geeky love for Chris Pirillo? I still have to thank my time over at Lockergnome to much of the success I have now in my professional life. I’ve been a fan of Chris’s ever since the TechTV days and it was awesome to work with him on a few projects here and there.
