andrewduckerSomeone asked me the other day where I got all my links from. Here's a few pointers.
Warren Ellis has an internet column syndicated here that consists largely of strange and unusual links. You do occasionally find things you should not look at, but there's usually plenty of warning.
Slashdot is a geeky news site, that frequently has cool information, albeit mixed in with loads of things you don't care about.
Then there's my 'news' friends list, consisting of
![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-syndicated.gif)
ars_technica, kuro5hin, neowin, plasticdotcom, roger_ebert, saloncom, the_guardian and wired_news.
I also check the BBC News on a regular basis, as well as The Register and The Inquirer for tech news.
Oh, and of course,blogdex_feed contains the most common links found in blogs, ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
jwz links to amusing things, linkfrenzy does likewise, in more compact form and linkmachinego does much the same. That's my links friends group.
And if that lot doesn't keep you informed, nothing will do.

When you read it every day, you realise how it isn't actually updated nearly as often as you'd expect, but covers things rather better than TV/a lot of newspapers.

Date: 2004-12-03 09:16 am (UTC)I read The Metro on the way to work. It has all the news that I've read the day before on the BBC, but in a semi-tabloid, or at least populist broadsheet style, which is entertaining sometimes for the different emphasis in some stories...
