Internet Rut
Dec. 15th, 2003 01:44 pmMy 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.

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

Also MetaFilter.
I'll check it out. What is it?

Date: 2003-12-15 12:28 pm (UTC)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.

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.

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.
