...at N&R.com.

It's a good list, and I'm not just saying that because Ed mentioned us so prominently (really). The one site I think he overlooked is MetaFilter, which regular readers of this site know I find indispensible. Arts and Letters Daily is a great link-dump for literati, too, even if it trends a little towards the conservative side of the fence for me at times. For nerd-related entertainment news, no one beats the granddaddy of them all, Harry Knowles at Ain't It Cool News. (The extent to which any of those three can be thought of as blogs is up for debate. Your mileage may vary be objectively incorrect.)

The best politics blog he didn't list is Matt Yglesias, followed by Kevin Drum. For a more conservative take on the news, you still can't beat The Volokh Conspiracy. Rescinded. See here.

The best economics blog hands down in Marginal Revolution.

The best sci-fi, comics, and geek links blog that not enough people go to is Gravity Lens. Why Gravity Lens isn't more popular, I don't know.

The best Bruce-Springsteen-news blog is Greasy Lake. A good music blog for non-Bruce-Springsteen-related music news is The Dust Congress, which PClem says he reads more often than he reads Backwards City itself.

For comics, there's Newsarama, The Comics Reporter, and Scott McCloud, depending on the level of sophistication / superhero-content of your favorite comics. For an outstanding new picture nearly every day, there's Exploding Dog.

For tech and misc. news, it's GeekPress.

For amazing deals on stuff you may not need but probably want, it's SlickDeals. For everything else, there's Cynical-C.

All right, so what did I miss?
