Around my web in 60 seconds.
Here is a quick overview of the small secion of the web that I am checking:
- Food
- Slashfood - Damn, they write alot! Everytime I refresh the ole bloglines, there is a new food realted story. Kind of nice.
- Cinematical - A lovely little (or not) site all about movies. Usually has some good reads and reviews.
- Overheard in the Office - Can’t live without the humor that pours from this site. If you work, you should read.
- TV Squad - I particularly enjoy their daily “What’s on tonight” entry. Helps me keep my tv watching (heaven knows there’s too much of that) straight.
- digg - Digg.com was meant to be the next slashdot.org, news driven by users. In reality it’s a “Look at this cool link” collection. I had great hopes, alast they are now being vanquished daily.
- Engadget - Engadget is a good site for all of your gadgets, if by gadgets you mean cell phones. Christ, do I need another cellphone review/in-the-wild/possibly-new-version. Well, yes, if you keep reading this site.
- Gizmodo - Gizmodo has something wrong with their RSS feeds. I know that I’ve read all the current articles, but when I refresh, I have 40 unread articles, all being ones that I have read before. Still a good gadget blog.
- TechCrunch - TechCrunch is my current blog-crush. I love all the Web 2.0 that they report on. I always feel like the most leet h4×0r when I show things from this blog off to people.
- Drink at Work - Drink at Work is the blog that accompanies Medium Large, a great little comic. I love the lists and commentaries here. Take a look for yourself.
- Dvorak Uncensored - John C. Dvorak (who get’s “No Spam”) has great info that he some how manages to draw together. It’s fun and he’s bitter. That’s pretty much it.
- Treehugger - I don’t know if I get Treehugger yet. I think you ahve to be a hyper advanced environmentalist. Maybe it’s just a matter of over-night-evolution. Who know?
- Be A Design Group - These guys put out the amazing “Be A Design Cast” podcast (search for it on iTunes). The articles are great too. Good reading for a junior designer, such as myself
- Positive Fanatics - and IKEA weblog. What could be better? An IKEA weblog with cheese. Yup.
- A List Apart - CSS gods. Plain and simple. If you design a website, read everything they write.
- Creating Passionate Users - This is a site I stumbled upon that is really intersting. I don’t know if I can apply everything they preach, but it’s still workt absorbing
- Signal vs. Noise - The makers of basecamp and tada lists, with some great “web 2.0″ insights.
