Slashdot.org/science
Call it a guilty pleasure. You're not necessarily attracted to it, but you can't resist its charm. Constantly updated with info from dark coners of the Web you wouldn't otherwise visit, Slashdot is still the most recognized and informed science-related blog on the Net. Intelligent musings ramble from general science to space to bio-tech. Recommended dose: twice a day.
Scienceblog.com
Jam-packed with 16 categories and minimal annoying commentary, this site gets about 5 to 10 posts daily. Access day-old articles on the right side of the page. Recommended dose: once every two days.
Impactlab.com
Hosted by the Da Vinci Institute, a futurist think tank known for uncovering emerging technologies, the site, with its 91 topics, provides a good balance of the expected (news from CNN, New Scientist, BBC, space.com) and the unexpected (tidbits from little known sites like betterhumans.com). Recommended dose: once a day.
Techdirt.com
This site tends to be more tech than science and more Wall Street than basement nerd. Categories like News You Can Do Without and (Mis) Use of Technology come off as snarky but smart. Check out Up-to-Date, a sometimes weekly summary of the high-tech world. Recommended dose: twice a week, Monday and Friday.
<Please note the techdirt site was done, when I tried 10 minutes ago>
Mygeekdom.com
Like Slashdot with a potty mouth. You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll become slightly smarter, or dumber. Depends on the day. Recommended dose: when the kids aren't around.
Anyway I hope you guys enjoy these helpful resources.
