My daily routine:

nytimes.com / salon.com / eonline.com / aldaily.com / aintitcool.com / deanforamerica.com / teevee.org / televisionwithoutpity.com / weather.com / cnn.com / flist.

What are other sites you guys check daily, and why do you love them? I'm getting bored with my routine.

nytimes.com / aintitcool.com / spoilercrypt / flist / cnn.com

I read other sites regularly as well, but I check these every day.

Hm. My "daily" toolbar gizmo takes me to:

flist, cnn, salon, www.damnhellasskings.com, and the daily for better or for worse strip.

Also Strong Bad emails, since they are irregularly updated, but I don't count that.

Well...

Well, um, livejournal (http://www.livejournal.com), naturally. Also MetaFilter (http://www.metafilter.org).

Well, um, livejournal, naturally.

Yes, it's right there at the end of the list. I get everything else out of the way, and then hit my flist.

Also MetaFilter.

I'll check it out. What is it?

it's a thing! Hit my flist, I pick it up as a feed and there are a bunch of them throughout the day.

Ah, I did not recognise the abbreviation 'flist' - am not aways very swift.

MetaFilter is a community weblog. Basically, people post cool links, and people discuss.

flist, cnn.com, gateworld.net, Area 52 archive, twop, weather.com, tonguetied.us, forteantimes.com breaking news, strangehorizons.com.

I love them because they distract me with trivia. And fannish thoughts. And news. And stuff.

Consider slate.com for all your Christopher Hitchens needs.

MetaFilter, like sarudy and Merry. (They've just added a really cool thing; if you go to the MetaTalk link there's another thing at the top for "Ask MetaFilter," which is a new discussion forum where you can post questions about all kinds of things and get answers/solutions/ideas from the MeFi membership, who are on the whole a knowledgeable and well-connected bunch.)

Izzle Pfaff, a personal weblog which isn't updated daily but is really, really funny.

Mimi Smartypants, ditto the above comment.

Gizmodo, for all your cool gizmo/gadget/tech-toy breaking news.

Boing Boing. Interesting collective weblog.

And every morning I do the Daily Jigsaw at Shockwave, while drinking coffee and trying to get my eyes fully open.

I go for the news for nerds:
www.slashdot.org
www.theregister.co.uk
www.unitedmedia.com/comics/dilbert/

Many of the same articles are on Slashdot and The Register, but The Register puts an editorial spin on the Slashdot stories, and Slashdot has a great comment system.

Oh, and I needs me my daily Boondocks.

Let's see, I do:

cnn.com / seattletimes.com / bbcnews.co.uk / empireonline.co.uk / dvdplanet.com / tvshowsondvd.com / the astronomy picture of the day site I can't remember the URL for (.com) / flist (repeated the most)

I also check out advocate.com and weatherunderground.com, as well as Mark Harden's Artchive now and then to see what new things he's uploaded.

blogdex.net

Because if it's a big story that's going around the net, it'll be linked from there, without me having to track through a dozen other sites.
