Magic the Gathering Blogs?

I've recently started collecting Magic cards again solely out of nostalgia (thought I am considering hitting up one of the local Friday Night Magic meetings.)
One thing that has me shocked is the general absence of any Magic the Gathering related blogs. It seems the majority of search results for the terms "Magic the Gathering" and "MtG" lead solely to official pages or card dealers.
A quick search on Technorati reveals less activity for the term than I expected. There are apparently a slew of Youtube videos (many appear to be straight from Wizards of the Coast) but other than that information is scarce.
Major bummer - I was hoping to locate a blog for beginners or "newbs." It's been so long since I last played, and the game has changed so immensely, that I'm pretty much starting fresh. With the exception of a few boosters and theme decks I've picked up solely on a whim when at the bookstore I haven't seriously collected since 5th edition.
Maybe I found a niche, maybe I'm just missing something. Either way I figured this would be a good opportunity to restart this blog. If you're interested in Magic the Gathering keep your eyes peeled for some more posts.

Hey WotC_Solice thanks for stopping in.
I look forward to any “newbie chats” you may decide to run.
I shoeboxed my old collection and have pretty much started from scratch which makes this an incredibly enlightening ride. It’s amazing how many new mechanics have been added and how many familiar ones have been built on. I’m really looking forward to getting a deck together and jumping into a game.

Glad to have you back! I look forward to reading along. I am hoping to have “newbie chats” started soon to help out those just getting started, or just returning.
