Pimp My Blogroll

By Lev Grossman on March 11, 2009

An ongoing source of shame in my life is my pathetic blogroll. I did it in like 6 minutes the day the blog went up, because 6 minutes was all I had. And now I can't change it without the aid of an engineer who has a Ph.D. in astrophysics and mind powers. But I'm going to do it this week. Help? Gimme links: what's your essential daily reading?

Now back to Watchmen humor:

... and he loves to party down ...

    I'm blanking on others that you (a) don't already follow, or (b) haven't at least heard about (in these comments, anyways.)

  4. And even though it isn't animated, you can't play it, and there's no associated merchandizing, you could still definately get your ass kicked in school for being a fan of apod (http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/astropix.html). But there's like a decade's worth of archives, with an entry for every day in between. You could lose multiple jobs back to back going through it all.

  6. The Curious Capitalist people are way too cool to be linked to from Nerd World. It'll just ruin their image.
