As the days turn colder here in Wisconsin, we spend more time online. I have my daily routine of checkin' the email and blogs. It really does pay to keep up on some of the neat websites out there. Without a TV readily available to us, students rely on the internet. Google news gives a good over view but when I really want some more unbiased news, I head over to Al Jazeera, actually. In such a time where all of the 24-hour news sources are focused on what Sarah Palin is wearing, it is refreshing to learn what else is going on in the world. We are global citizens after all!
Some of my other daily reads are Tree Hugger, for all my sustainable-hippie-hemp-and-sandal-wearing needs. I will always be a geek at heart (and growing up in Silicon Valley helped with that) so I hit up a couple of more tech-focused blogs like Gizmodo, for my gadget fix and Lifehacker, for interesting new programs and tips to make my computing time (many hours a week) just a bit easier. Jezebel and Pop Candy cover my pop culture fix. I also like to check out a couple of more brain-numbing sites like the Kitchn, and drool over recipies I can't try my hand at until breaks.
Mmmm. Free tacos for everyone!
