I follow, mostly slashdot.org
That is about all I have time for..
I liked wired even if they are a lot less
technical, so I follow wired some of the time.
I have several subscriptions to a VB magazine,
and a Java magazine that I like to read to see what
all is happening along those lines... :)
The reason I pick VB is just because the mag ties
into so much other stuff that generally it gives
a lot of cool info/overview on what the nuclear
engineers up at redmond are up to.
I also like Web-Techniques by CMP which has
a lot of everything but CF, Perl and various
other little tricks and hints and cool stuff
overall.

a couple of them.
