And you were expecting a list of books? Here are the top five blogs I visit daily:
1) Eschaton
http://atrios.blogspot.com/
Duncan Black is an economist in Philadelphia. I don't always understand his economic analyses, but his rapier wit always makes me laugh. Updated constantly. This has been at the top of my bloglist ever since I first heard the term "blog".
2) DailyKos
http://www.dailykos.com/
Markos Zuniga runs this political community weblog. Many regular posters with different talents. Right now SusanG and NYBri are hot on the trail of the Presstitute, but you can find stories on everything that's hot on the left side of the aisle.
3) Steve Gilliard's News Blog
http://stevegilliard.blogspot.com/
I just discovered this blog a few months ago. It's a spin-off from the Kos blog (Kos lists him as a "site alumni"). Black New Yorker, always edgy take on the news.
4) Talking Points Memo
http://www.talkingpointsmemo.com/
Joshua Micah Marshall. Very smart guy. Currently obsessed with defeating Bush's crazy destroy Social Security scheme. Has adopted the phrases "Conscience Caucus" and "Fainthearted Faction" to label supporters & opponents of the scheme, but I can't keep those cutesy little terms straight. So it's a bit of an insider's club these days.
5) Women's Hoops Blog
http://www.womenshoops.blogspot.com/
Formerly known as Sara & Ted's Women's Hoops blog. Keeps me up with women's basketball (since it is so rarely on TV I rely on the internets to keep me up to date.) Follows the games & the issues. This is where I learned about the Rick Lopez case in Colorado. Ewww.
That's my top five. This month I've also been reading AmericaBlog (http://www.americablog.org/) for its coverage of the Presstitute, and as spring training is in full swing, The Joy of Sox (http://www.joyofsox.blogspot.com/)
