I’ve been really getting into reading the sunday ny times. Its a great way to discover new topics, and its generally pretty entertaining on a sunday afternoon, when trying to avoid a computer for the last day of the weekend.
In order to keep track of the things that caught my attention, I wanted to start keeping a list here. As always its tough to decide what format (diigo, google notebook, etc), but for now I’ll just try simple links (I know, I know, I hate that nytime.com requires a login!) Maybe I’ll even get back to reflecting on some of these topics!
