Linktastic

Someone 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
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, 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.

aww...crap, I am now tainted because I *looked*.

I didn't wait for the whole image to load but I could tell it was something awful.

The new icon's kind of Tom Baker-ish.

As for a place to find delightful links, I go to del.icio.us or Popular del.icio.us links if I'm feeling lazy. See what other people tagged by going to http://del.icio.us/torin/photography and hitting the side links works really well for me lately.

Oh and yes, I looked. No, I'm not traumatized.

Hi, I must've been given either an inefficient mind or I'm just lazy and I think it's the latter of the two because I can't comprehend how you can process this all and keep up to date! You really surprise me!

I don't like that icon :-( Scares me.

My goodness, I feel peculiarly well-informed ever since looking at that image. Gah.

In addition to all those,

I've grown really fond of both Metafilter and Monkeyfilter.
