links?

[schmerica]

Um, how come nobody ever informed me before that Meg Cabot's blog is basically the best thing ever? You are all FIRED. I am slightly saddened by the fact that she does not have direct links to each entry, because the July 25, 2005 entry is basically the best thing I have ever read in my life. <3<3<3.

Anybody want to link me to more interesting blogs? I am mostly interesting in book-y things, or to a lesser extant, food.

My blog bookmarks right now consist of the following:

+ Bookslut
+ Neil Gaiman's Journal (although, actually, I need to catch up here, as I have not been reading for months)
+ The Daily Bread: a food blog
+ Go Fug Yourself
+ Smart Bitches, Trashy Books (also a new find which I am entertaining myself with)
+ Meg's Diary!
+ Making Light

Rec other interesting blogs, people? Livejournals I do not already know about are good, too, especially if book or food centric.

+ Inspired by Go Fug Yourself, You Knit What?? (http://youknitwhat.blogspot.com/) (also available as a syndicated feed at youknitwhat.)

+ Pop Culture Junk Mail (http://pcjm.blogspot.com/), possibly the best blog ever for random interesting shit.

And, okay, EVERYTHING SHOULD BE SYNDICATED. That is my wish for the Internet Of The Future. I'm all, "You mean I actually have to *go* to these blogs? They won't just show up on my f'list? SO MUCH WORK."

Also, Jessica and Heather of Go Fug Yourself both have blogs -- I don't read Heather's, but Jessica's is here (http://ultratart.typepad.com/ultratart/) (_ultratart), and she's awesome.

Er, that'd be ultratart_. Stupid underscores.

OMG I KNOW. WHY MUST I GO TO MORE THAN ONE SITE? WHY HAS LJ NOT TAKEN OVER THE WORLD YET?

You know that Neil Gaiman has an LJ feed, right? And Bookslut too?

Any site you go to that has an RSS or XML button can have an LJ feed, all you have to do is set it up:
http://www.livejournal.com/support/faqbrowse.bml?faqid=137

If one already exists, it will give you the info. If not, you get to name the feed!

I find it much easier to go through the motions of setting up a feed rather than looking through the thousands of feed names looking for the one I want.

My favorite blog/LJ feed is Overheard In New York: overheardnyc. Not bookish or foodish, but damn funny.

Yep -- that's actually how I read Neil Gaiman and Bookslut normally; also Go Fug Yourself and the Daily Bread. I've been doing overheardnyc since last week, too, but it's started to make me a little depressed about people and the world in general.
