*should* be reading? (Score:1)
Mmm. Pudge and I have talked about this offline. Promoting blogging or blog consumption to a daily TODO item can lead to madness. Personally, I run through my "friends" list on use.perl.org, NVP [noopy.org], HFB [hietaniemi.org] and Jmac [jmac.org]. I also will check out blogs of people who comment on blogs (oddly enough). It seems like there is an interesting excerise in data mining in watching blogs, although I can't quite formulate what that excerise would be. Monitoring productivity loss in the work place, maybe? :-)

I have a handful of non-use.perl blogs that I read. I'm just wondering whether I'm missing good stuff.
As for datamining, I really want to gather a hundred peoples' bookmarks files and use clustering to see

I read a whole bunch of journals here, mostly to see what perl people are doing and see what my friends have to say here. Oh, and I check out the oreillynet blogs pretty regularly too. :-)
For non-useperl blogs, I look for something that's interesting that contains news/links I won't find anywhere else. I've gotten into lisp recently, so I'm reading lemonodor [lemonodor.com], Lambda the Ultimate [weblogs.com] daily, and Paul Gra [paulgraham.com]
