I'm messing around with it for the first time. What are your favorites? I'd like some suggestions on some good and humorous current news blogs or opinion sites in particular.
 
I enjoy several Gawker blogs like: io9, Lifehacker, Gizmodo, and Jalopnik
also Make:, Engadget, Dark Roasted Blend and a couple others
 
Mine are all literature/book related, along with quote-of-the-day and word-of-the-day.
 
Okay, you asked. I have a few gadgets on my iGoogle Homepage. I use Google Reader for keeping up with interesting blogs.

I won't list all of them here; some are just family stuff:

  • A Houseful of Rabbits - Pictures and antics of just that.
  • ali's african adventures - Diary of a young Christian nurse who spent a year on Mercy Ships in Liberia. She just got home - and engaged! Congrats, Ali!
  • Birdchick Blog - I've recently developed a fascination for songbirds, and Birdchick takes GREAT digiscoped bird photos.
  • Bring the Rain - Angie Smith's blog about motherhood and Christianity
  • Cake Wrecks - If you are not aware of this hysterically funny blog, run, subscribe, and laugh till you pee!
  • Cute Things Falling Asleep - YouTube videos, mostly of drowsy baby animals. Very sweet.
  • Disapproving Rabbits - A spinoff of Birdchick's blog, featuring innumerable bunnies in various poses of disapproval. Think LOLCats with the energy level dialed back about 1000x and with better spelling & grammar.
  • ForrestWorks - Blog of one of my favorite choral composers. He was nominated for a Pulitzer last year - way to go, Dan!
  • Holy Experience - Just found this one - homeschooling mom of 6 in Canada musing on motherhood & God.
  • ivman's blague - My college French professor's weekly funny email list morphed into a blog a few years ago.
  • I Can Haz Cheezburger? - Do I need to explain this one?
  • my charming kids - Yet another Christian mama, with the addition of stunning, adorable photography of Big Mac, MckNugget, Small Fry, and MckMuffin.
  • OMGKitty!!!! - Scottish Fold Pictures and videos - Hmm, haven't seen a new post here in a while... Cute kitty, though. :)
  • Overheard in Athens & Overseen in Athens - Good for an occasional local laugh.
  • Pensees - Pastor acquaintance's occasional musings.
  • Radical Womanhood - Carolyn McCulley's blog for the single Christian woman.
  • Screen Rant - Movie news
  • SharperIron - Fundamental Christian blog & forum
  • Sweet Baby James - Christian family raising a severly handicapped son. (He passed away just recently. :()
  • The Litabug Phlog - Online acquaintance, crafty-artsy mama posting about Boston and family life; they've just moved to Nashville area, which makes me a little sad.
  • The Pyramid Scheme of Cuteness - Not sure the overall theme, just get some cute posts out of it.
  • The Raving Theist - One of the internet's most vocal atheists who recently converted to Christianity. Just found this one today.
  • Unplugged - Gadgety news. I think Neroon posted a link to the site once a while back, and I've learned some really neat stuff since then.
  • ZooBorns - Newborn animals from zoos all over the world.

This was good for me, I actually culled a few feeds that weren't producing. :techman:
 
I have plenty of stuff on three tabs, main, tech/blogs and hard news.
