1. Hodinkee
"Talking Watches With John Mayer"
I would say that this article, and the Youtube video that accompanies it, is one of the articles that got me into the hobby of horology and watches seriously. Hodinkee is a blog and Youtube channel that talks about anything related to watches and includes news of upcoming releases from major and small, independent brands.
2. ABlogtoWatch
"Rolex Datejust II And Rolex Day-Date II Watch Reviews"
Similar to Hodinkee, aBlogtoWatch has been one of the first media outlets that influenced me and my interest in watches. Ariel Adams' soothing voice was one of the reasons why I started watching his reviews. This article was one of the first ones that I saw, and I really enjoyed it; as I've always wanted a Rolex Day-Date II in Everose gold with the chocolate dial.
3. The Dodo
"Orca Spotted Hanging Out And Traveling With A Pod Of Dolphins"
The Dodo is a name that quite a lot of people would recognize. Their videos would be seen and shared by many on their Facebook feeds. This is because the majority of The Dodo's videos are about cute animals that people enjoy watching. They also have a blog, and this is where I found this article. I actually really like sea animals, and used to watch videos and documentaries about Orcas specifically as a young boy, so this really interested me.
4. The Drive
"How Mitsubishi's Well-Loved Lancer Evolution Got Its Start"
The Drive is a blog on anything related to cars. So naturally I was very interested as this is also one of my hobbies. The article was about the Mitsubishi Evolution and its subsequent history. The Lancer Evolution has been a car that I've admired over the years, but due to its outrageous price locally and its unreliability, I choose to admire from afar.
5. Car Throttle
"Coilovers And A Proper Alignment Have Transformed My E36 M3 Into Perfection"
I often try to find the time to read articles about simple car modifications online, in preparation to when I acquire an actual sports car. This article is actually in line with my interests, as the BMW E36 coupe is what I'm eyeing to get in the near future.
