A blog I reguarly read for the pure joy of cartographic material is Beagraphy. Written by Beate Weninger.

Where she presented her former project about 'accoustically enhanced maps. Albeit applied to routes.

maps4vips: May 2012
http://maps4vips.blogspot.com/2012_05_01_archive.html
Blog about non-visual navigation, especially with tactile maps. Saturday, May 19, 2012. Writing a thesis on multiple computers. About the principles of constructing tactile orientation maps (semi)automatically. I have built my own data storage infrastructure that synchronizes my files and data to multiple computers. The background is that I work from different sites with different computers, some of which are always online, some of them at least partially offline (for example when I ride the train).

Blog about non-visual navigation, especially with tactile maps. Tuesday, May 6, 2014. Zeit-Artikel "Navi essen Orientierungssinn auf" (in German). For those of you with a command of German please read this article of today. It highlights the problem of relying on electronical assistant systems (such as navigation systems) too much. The author Kathrin Passig. Wrote it with a sense of humour and it is a joy to read. From my own studies about tactile maps, I have added references to scientific articles.
