In:
TreeHugger – Yeah, their feed is annoying and their site is really slow. But it’s a great way to quickly tap into a lot of news and up-and-comers in the world of sustainability.
Blog Maverick – Mark Cuban’s blog about finance, bball, technology, and himself. His financial perspectives over the past few months have been really helpful. A different perspective for sure, and he’s quite good at breaking down unnecessary complexity. Kind of an important skill I’d say, and definitely the mark of a good technologist.
PrairieMod – If you like minimalism, organic architecture, beautiful things… you’ll get lot’s of ideas from PrairieMod. They turned me onto some really great sites on architecture, art, and sustainability (too many for this short list).
Out:
TechCrunch – Seriously, what’s the point of that thing anymore. A friend of mine likes to call that stuff “business porn.” They call it “New Internet”, I’m just bored with it.
Unfortunately, 3 in 1 out is about the proportion I’ve been following for the last 5 years. So I’ve been falling behind on lots of feeds that I find really valuable. Anybody else care to share some must read feeds to exacerbate my problem?
It’s pretty likely you’ve already checked these out, but if not I consider them must have:

This one’s quieted down of late (and you won’t like the last few posts) but I’d still recommend checking it out: http://railstips.org/
