You just have to list 10. I say 11 because we’ll just assume everybody’s #1 is straightdope. Kinda like they won’t let Jenna Jameson compete for the best porn actress award because they know she’d win. It just wouldn’t be fair to the others. Here’s mine:

A few of my faves
http://www.dreamline.nu - an unofficial collection of Dave McKean’s work
http://www.jeanettewinterson.com - author’s site
http://www.luminarium.org - beautiful English lit site
http://www.themodernword.com/borges/ - also known as the Garden of Forking Paths. Nice little site on Jorges Luis Borges
http://www.pre-raphaelites.com - the Brotherhood rocked!
http://www.boygeorge.co.uk - Terribly bitchy, sometimes fun column archive. I read it only when I’m in a bad mood.
I’m down to just a couple.
I’ve pretty much given up on my former favorites, as the shopping sites became dot.gones.
So I use
Zap2it.com TV listings
My.Yahoo.com news and movies
email
and… uh… that’s about it
even this site is no longer on my speed dial.
I’m back to pre-web-fever days.
Here you go…
1)The UnaBoard
2)The Smarks
3)Fathom
4)View Askew
5)The Shooters
6)Rajah
7)Snopes

I haven’t been playing as much online as I used to be… if you’d asked me this 5 years ago, the answers would have been completely different!
Damn! And after all the times I reminded him yesterday to switch names, I forgot to do it myself!
Of course, I could have left it and posted next that I would never find myself going to a baseball site, even if my life depended on it!
