Humongo

Humongo's Brand Flakes for Breakfast blog has a pretty straightforward pitch: "We read the internet so you don't have to."

Maybe that's a bit of an overstatement -- the blog's tone is a little cheeky after all -- but the truth is that if you want to sound like you're up to speed on web culture, you can't go wrong with Brand Flakes for Breakfast.

But don't get the wrong idea; this isn't the sort of blog that's going to scoop Wired magazine on some underground technology you've never heard of that will either change everything or fizzle faster than you can say "dotcom." Rather, reading Brand Flakes for Breakfast is more like having breakfast with the cool kids before school. Their posts are good inspiration for creatives, but they're also good fodder for chats, random tweets, and funny Facebook posts because they seem to have a knack for finding something cool, like this post about a rather funny Christmas video.

Thanks for the mention, Michael. I think you nailed on the head what we're trying to do with our blog—which is provide value—whether that value comes in the form content that makes you better at your job or content that makes you laugh so hard milk comes out your nose. Both of those things are part of our culture and we see the blog as a window in to that. Cheers,
