One thing I enjoy about EVE is that the community, both in and out of game, is huge and spirited. There is a long list of blogs on the subject that I think any new player or prospective player should take a look at. You can learn a great deal about the different ways to play the game as well as the many dangers that you’ll face in your first few weeks and months as a pod-pilot.
The best list of blogs you’ll find is CrazyKinux’s Blogroll, where you’ll find this blog along with nearly 150 others. The list is constantly changing as new bloggers come online so check it out often.
It looks like my little blog will be mentioned in the next micro warp cast as well so be sure to check that out.
Keep an eye out for a hi-sec Player Owned Structure (POS) guide that I’m working on for all you nubs (like me) who are interested in having your own POS in Empire space.
