I'm purging my literary and polit. desktop bookmarks. Only the clever,

and insightful make the cut. Already, I find the quality of my reading has improved. My only guilty pleasure is the DU lounge. Will keep DU LBN and if inclided, will visit other DU forums from there. Just think its time to up my eyeball diet a notch. Anyone else ever go through this phase?

1. Now I'm curious: Which unclever and uninsightful stuff did you used to

bookmark and read?

2. Not just unclever butstuff that was a bit redundant -- like if I already

had two blogs that reported the latest from varous investigative journalists -- I pulled the plug on Palast. Or maybe there was an event link that never got updated as much as I wanted it to -- poof. Or maybe I had given some trendy NY blogger a chance becaus someone cool gave them a plug -- I rethought keeping them. I just became more merciless. I can't even remember most of the ones I axed. Lost NYT. Lost Village Voice. Lost Krugman - not updated enough.

I have not quite gotten the handle on RSS feeds. Unless I am doing something wrong, it takes too much effort to acess then. I will futher explore with my new PC.
