I Need More Reading Material

There's something pathetic about this. I just spent an hour surfing off of strangers' blogs and websites, looking for some new daily online reading material. I have about three friends who update their blogs regularly, and a couple strangers whose blogs/sites I find interesting. But I need... newness.

I enjoy being a bit of an online voyeur, reading about strangers' lives and tribulations and what-have-you—but only if said strangers have interesting web design skillz and the capability to write a coherent paragraph. This counts out anyone under the age of 19 (for the most part), anyone who regularly types in 1337 (that's "leet" for you non-geek-o-philes), or who uses "u r" or "cuz" or "wuz" or any such thing.

Strangers' sites I've located today (or previously) that I enjoy reading:
+ Maniacal Rage
+ etherf@rm
+ Authentic Boredom

And... um... that's it. I require more intellectual stimulus. Gah.

a good way to do this is to browse to a friend's friend list, and choose a few interesting friends, and check out THEIR freinds' lists :D

like go to http://www.livejournal.com/users/sheryls/friends/

read a bit, add them if you like, and check out their freinds' list - add them too :D

You know, I tried that with Beth's friends list one night, and ended up with a bunch of really weird people with not much going on. :-) One photographer chick seemed pretty cool, but the other two dozen LJ's I read were pretty run-of-the-mill.

Of course, just glancing mine over, I suppose mine would seem pretty standard to a stranger, too...
