What is this site?

The lists here include posts from active design team blogs that meet the following criteria:

  • Only in-house design or UX teams â€“ Company blogs are included if there’s a design or UX-specific category to follow. No guest contributor posts.
  • At least one post in the last year â€“ There are many dormant team sites with great articles, but only active blogs are included.
  • Must have an RSS feed (or be scrapable) – If anyone knows of a feed for design.google, let me know. ÂŻ\_(ツ)_/ÂŻ

Know of a design team blog we missed? If it meets the above criteria and isn’t listed, please let us know!

This all started with the “Design Team Blogroll” post I wrote to encourage my colleagues to contribute to Design at Sprout Social. My hope is that making these aggregated feeds more accessible will encourage design teams to learn from one another and share even more.
