Out of Touch
Just wanted to let you folks know that I’m sorry for neglecting you. I was away on a retreat with my coworkers at an inn that didn’t have wireless internet access. Now I have an entire series to catch up on. Until then, enjoy some of my favorite links (in no particular order):
- BBSpot (Satire for smart people...and me.)
- news @ nature.com (Dave and I check this constantly.)
- Nihon Sumo Kyokai Official Grand Sumo Home Page (A fascinating sport once you learn more about it. I miss seeing the tournaments on Nippon Golden Network.)
- Good Morning Silicon Valley (A blog before blog was a word.)
- I, Cringely (Can there be such a thing as a curmudgeon technologist? If so, it’s this guy.)
- McSweeney’s (They rejected me. I’m over it.)
- Elizabeth Bishop (One of my favorite poets.)
- Animal Diversity Web (What genus was the red panda again?)
- Powers of 10 (A PBS classic. On this site, every order of magnitude has links to other pages, some of which are quite interesting.)
- Carl Zimmer (Why are all the good geeks taken?)
- Sor Juana Ines de la Cruz (She needs a better agent; more people should know about this woman.)
Go visit them for a while. Come back later and hopefully there will be something new.
