Favorite Web Sites

• Reddit. Like Digg but more biased toward my point of view and interests.
• PopURLS. A roundup of the roundups; lists the top items on BoingBoing, Digg, Metafilter, YouTube, and so on. Your one-stop shop for the latest bits of information.
• SFGate, the site I started - and still read every day. News about the San Francisco Bay Area.
