An old blog and boring too. Booted.

The Website at the End of the Universe
Linkblog focused on sci-fi and geeky topics.

dork magazine.
dork is a magazine about fashion, culture, and other junk in NYC, not written by dorks. it would have virtually no value for pure dorks so the name is a misnomer. These kids try too hard to be "cool" but they still make a good website.

SWAPATORIUM
On hiatus for the moment, Swapatorium collects the type of treasures found at yard sales and junk piles across America.

ALTER
Independent and inexpensive fashion design storefront in Greenpoint. I should be checking this space more often.

Laughing Squid
A Webhosting company in SF, Laughing Squid also maintains this pretty good linkblog similar to BoingBoing.

Investigative reporting of new Web 2.0 companies and their services. Top-notch analysis and great headlines.

Andy Baio doesn't update much anymore, which is a shame. Tech issues, industry analysis, and unrelated journalism.

WeBreakStuff
Tech issues on a variety of topics. Good

web 2.01
Inactive, delete.

Ftrain.com
Humor and other writing by Paul Ford. A+.

The Laughing Bone
I am more grateful for this blog than any other except BoingBoing and BLDGBLOG. Erudition and the excellence of an earlier age are present in this philosophical investigation that was begun by B. Jones and has been taken up in the wake of his passing by S. Casey.

McSweeney's
The humor center for the ironic under-25 set, I haven't read McSweeney's regularly in some time, but I assure you, they bring the funny.

SFGate: Mark Morford
Indescribably open-minded and liberal and embracing the new and strange, Mark Morford is obviously from San Francisco. He has thousands of fans in the Midwest who send him obsessive letters every week, and he loves it.

Weekly Review
The feed is inactive but it's well worth tracking another one down. This is a weekly run-down of world events from Harper's that's incredibly surreal, disheartening, and encouraging often in the same paragraph.

Fireland
The home of Joshua Allen. Very funny and a true old-school blog that you'd actually want to read.

carrollblog

Where Do You Get Your Ideas?
Great blog, collecting quotes from creative people about where they get their ideas.
Da Vinci Automata
Steampunk and clockpunk. A+.

New Urban Legends - Recent updates on snopes. I thought this might have some practicality but it might be time to put this one on probation.

I have no journal - This appears to be a foodie's LiveJournal, I'm deleting it.

My blogroll contains, at last count, 290 blogs. Some of them I have probably never read. This is an attempt to catalogue them all, and separate the wheat from the chaff.
