Keeping up and staying interest(ed)/(ing)
One of my favorite guilty pleasures is the Scout Report.
I don’t hang around the fashion sites (though I did cruise through the spring collections last week before I went shopping). I have just a few meaty blogs subscribed by RSS. There are just not enough hours in the day to keep up with the world on the web.
But I continue my subscription to the Scout Report. It is a “Best On the Web” listing of sites with a few sentences about each, so you understand why they think it is worth a visit.
These folks have be scanning the web since 1994 and have several lists to which you can subscribe. The email comes every few weeks. Sometimes I get to it right away, sometimes not. These are not cutting edge announcements that might disappear as soon as their ISP gets wise. They are the thoughtful, interesting and worthwhile sites on a broad range of topics.
The Internet Scout Project is located in the Computer Sciences Department of the University of Wisconsin-Madison, under a grant from the NSF, provides information about the Internet to the U.S. research and education community.
