An expanding array of blogs cover the early modern England, Britain, and the World. Perhaps because the blogosphere emulates the cheap and ready world of Stuart London printing presses (the main title of the accompanying pamphlet title-page from the anarchic year of 1659, when censorship evaporated, is my personal favorite representing the early modern internet), many of these blogs focus on print, newspapers, and publishers. The wall between regular sites and blogs is not fast and is permeable. The following list is partial even of those I have bookmarked.
- A Bit British (presses, pamphleteering)
- Carnivalesque (blog carnival dedicated to pre-modern history)
- A Cuppe of Newes (Renaissance Research Group, English, Exeter)
- Diary of Samuel Pepys (the original blogger)
- Early Modern at the Beinecke (Yale's rare holdings)
- Early Modern History (English history and beyond, well integrated with other web sites)
- Early Modern Intelligencer (Birkbeck Early Modern Society)
- Early Modern London, Probably (printing, maps, and that metropolis)
- Early Modern Notes (blogger also runs Early Modern Resources gateways)
- Early Modern Rambler (newspaper advertisements, printing)
- Early Modern Whale (literature, ephemera)
- Eastern Association (Civil Wars)
- Fragments (poetry, medicine, entertainments)
- Investigations of a Dog (broader military issues, Civil Wars, horse-trade)
- Mercurius Politicus (books, history)
- Mistris Parliament (British Civil Wars)
- TudorHistory.org (things Tudor)
- Tudor Stuff (material culture and culture tout court)
- Wynken de Worde (books, culture)
