"Gadgets, Technology, Public speaking and IT from an undergraduate's perspective."

I especially like Alvin's post on Cool Inventions / Gadgets That Make Life Easier, highlighting such gadgets as "transparent toaster" and "toilet seat lifter".

Marty Tankleff Blog

Marty Tankleff Blog: A True Story of a False Confession.

If the blog's title doesn't make it obvious to you what it's about, then you haven't been paying much attention to the news lately. Marty Tankleff was charged in and convicted of the 1988 murder of his parents. Now after 17 years in prison -- nearly half of Marty's life -- a judge has ordered he be set free and all charges against Marty have been dropped. Keep updated on the latest in the case from the Marty Tankleff Blog.

Lesbiatopia

Lesbiatopia: "A humorous and personal commentary on life, love, sex and society from the minds of modern day lesbians"


Lesbiatopia is a wonderful lesbian-run blog that I just discovered. Unfortunately, in an apparently bigoted move, Digg.com is refusing to accept submissions from Lesbiatopia and other gay and lesbian sites. I therefor encourage you to visit Lesbiatopia and read up on the whole Digg thing.

LOL god

"Putting the fun back into religion"

LOL god is actually an atheist oriented blog. Most of the posts seem to be made up of cartoons and other clever and humorous visual commentaries. Also not to be missed is the atheist blog roll on the left side of the page.

Firefox Facts

Firefox Facts is a great blog for all Firefox enthusiasts, containing all sorts of neat little tips and tweaks.

Lansing Photo

Lansing Photo is a nice photo blog created by an apparently recent implant to the Lansing area. We'll forgive him for having lived in cough Ann Arbor cough. While I'm not going to steal any of the pics from the blog, and instead insist that you visit it yourself, I will steal some of the words from the introductory post :

Circumstances (a wife in veterinary school at MSU) forced a change of location, and I found myself in the state capital. I quickly found much to photograph and much to remind me of Ypsilanti. The people, the decaying grand architecture, the surrounding farms. What I had, and still have, a hard time finding is a group of people, a community, to share my passion with. So I'm creating this space to try to bring together people in the area who love Lansing, and love photography. Heck, loving Lansing is optional. Let's just fill this void, and come together to create something new, something this area lacks and sorely needs.
