If you’re really looking for some inspiration, Jim Goldstein’s annual tradition of the Best Photo blog project went live today:  Best Photos of 2010 by JMG-Galleries Blog’s Readers.

I of course would like to follow as many of your projects as possible, and I’m sure others would like to do the same. So if you are doing a Photo 365 project, or something similar, reply to to this post and tell us where we can find it. Feel free to mention your blogs and websites as well.
