And now for a post that has nothing to do with Obama. I'm gonna adjust my blogroll in the next couple days--mostly, I'm gonna add some folks (Balloon Juice, Kathy G, Amptoons, Jed Report...). FIrst, taking my que from Balloon Juice, I wonder if you guys have any reccommendations for blogs I should be reading, that I'm not. Also, what are the online ethics of pruning your blogroll? I mean, I read--and when lucky, write for--Slate, but they don't need any help from me. I'm more concerned about blogs that I don't read much anymore. Any thoughts? tag:ta-nehisicoates.theatlantic.com,2008://31.41479-comment:116274 Comment from Benjamin on 2008-05-25 Benjamin Well the only new blog that I don't see talked about enough around but that I recently added to my blogroll and adore is yours LOL

Other than that I think the other ideas I have are all sites you are familiar with like Poblano's blog (fivethirtyeight) and so on.

I am very fond of "angry asian man" though in the spirit of blogs aimed at a discussion about race but this one is from the perspective of the Asian-American community.

My assumption is that blogrolls are, and should be, about your preferences. That said, blogs that you know about, but that don't get a lot of traffic, would probably very much appreciate being on your blogroll, so if you like them, I'd leave them up even if you don't actually read them much anymore. I don't think there's any obligation to list anyone, though; it's more about courtesy and wanting to give good people a hand.

Full of bizarro stories of the sort that would be a lot more likely to come to the attention of, oh, a magazine devoted to serving the needs of state and municipal officials than to you or I.

Also, Tiny Revolution and Lawyers, Guns and Money. Recently, I've been enjoying tis one, too: South Jerusalem: Gershom Gorenberg and Haim Watzman.
Old favorite, still one of the best political commentary on the net: Digby's Hullaballo.

I blog for my own amusement about local (Capitol Hill in DC) issues; mostly about boozing, dealing with my kid, and other silliness; but I have been blogging about getting navigating the maze of DC Public Schools which some other folks might like to read about.

You have HuffPo on there, and I suspect every single person who reads this goes there, its one of the most popular sites in the net period. In other words, it doesn't belong. If I may make a few suggestions of blogs I know you will appreciate:

http://field-negro.blogspot.com/
a black lawyer from philly, who like you, blogs on various aspects of black life, politics, etc.

http://www.racismreview.com/blog/
A blog started by the former president of the American Sociological Association. Racism Review is intended to provide a credible and reliable source of information for... [those] who are seeking solid evidence-based research and analysis of “race,” racism, ethnicity, and immigration issues, especially as they undergird and shape U.S. society within a global setting.

you've gotta love that.

I'm a fan of the Black Snob - she's funny, and does some pretty interesting writing.

http://mediamatters.org/altercation/index

But I actually came over here today to see if you were up on the news that Politico.com just broke: the excerpts from former Press Secretary Scott McClellan's new book - What Happened.

Apparently, what happened is the American people got rolled. We all knew that was true, but to have yet another insider - and this one the voice of the President - say, "yeah, that's what happened" really spun me up to post on my blog. Now I am checking for reactions around the web.

I think you may find some of the ideas interesting.

I appreciate your writing and ideas.It's given me pause for thought many times. Keep up the good work.
