Part of my current daily ritual (being a die-hard tech geek and all) is my morning dose of technology & world news. Here are a few feeds that I rarely miss day to day:

• KurzweilAI.net Accelerating Intelligence News hosted by Ray Kurzweil, one of my favorite authors. (also available as a daily email)
• Slashdot: News for nerds. Stuff that matters. The quintessential nerds’ news source. The father of them all and by far the best source of bleeding-edge science and technology news. (also available as a daily email)
• Mobuzz.tv. Though recently hit hard with the loss of the much-adored newscaster Karina and the mysterious disappearance of her replacement, Suzan, Mobuzz has long been my number one daily tech news video. We’ll see…
  [UPDATE 1OCT07: There's a new hostess! 'Olivia'. And she's not half bad. Maybe there's hope for Mobuzz.]
• Reddit.com: whats new online. A good source for what’s new and popular each day.
• Del.icio.us/popular. Popular tags from del.icio.us.

Many other feeds which I visit less frequently cover a wide range of interests. You can see these on the public tabs of my frequently updated protopage rss aggregator: protopage.com/dgennetten. Here, you’ll also be able to instant-message me through my IM aggregator, meebo. Of these, here are a few favorites:

• NOTCOT.org An amazing collection of very creative things. Updated continuously.
• TWIT: This Week in Tech. One of the better tech podcasts. Weekly.
• frog design. A leading strategic and creative consultancy. Worked with them many times over the years.
• PigPog.com. All about being creative.
• Lifehacker.com. A great source for ideas to improve life and personal productivity. A GTD gold mine.
• StevePavlina.com: Personal Development for Smart People. A surprisingly insightful though somewhat self-absorbed blog.
• Singularity Institute blog. ‘an outreach to increase the likelihood that the promise of AI is realized for the benefit of everyone’

Another great source which I rely on is the New York Times—but with a catch: I only read it via the new WPF-powered TimesReader. Try it!
