New Sites

I have to admit, for the most part, I stick to sites like Yahoo news and the Washington Post. I rarely go outside of my comfort zone when it comes to search engines and sites to get information. So this will be quite a journey for me! Here are some great sites I've started following from my other class called "Web Soup": http://www.buzzmachine.com/ and http://mashable.com/. Mashable focuses on social media news, and buzzmachine is a blog by Jeff Jarvis, author of What Would Google Do? I have also been following Romenesko on Poynter to get news about the media: http://www.poynter.org/column.asp?id=45
