5 Sites You Should Be Checking

http://xkcd.com/ -An online webcoming geared towards the technologically savvy and sometimes emo.  I love me some mouseover text.  Randall updates 3 times a week.  It's not a time waster if you're learning, and chances are at least twice a month you'll have to resort to wikipedia in order to get the joke.

http://theoatmeal.com/ -Primarily a webcomic but also has a blog and quizzes.  Matt interweaves factoids and his personal opinions and stories but the real attractions are his unique comic style and snarky sense of humor.

http://laughingsquid.com/ -If you're a little bit artys/geek/young you'll probably like Laughing Squid.  They will keep you up to date with the latest videos, products, and events.  You know that friend who's always sending you the coolest internet things? Now you can be that guy.

http://hyperboleandahalf.blogspot.com/ -Allie is sort of crazy but you have to love her blog.  She tells a great story and her illistrations enahnce her storytelling in a way you haven't seen since you read children's books.  Expect random childhood stories, and some meta level bloging about bloging.  Oh, and she loves her followers.

http://www.thefuckingweather.com/ -It's your standard type in your zip and it will tell you the current weather site...except with swearing and sometimes witty comments.  Do it.
