It turns out that I still read the WOZ. On the web, most of my news arrives via @boingboing and @xeni – Twitter! There are a few other accounts I follow: @cshirky, @evgenymorozov, @privacylaw, @eff.
The WOZ #43, Oct. 27, 2011 listed some American alternative media beyond SMS and YouTube and talked about the need to finance them as a form of intellectual self-defense as well as some comments regarding their history or direction)

Stuff I no longer read: Bytes4All [1], Slashdot, Kuro5in, Newsforge, ViridianDesign… I just don’t like news online, who knows why – the monitor? the quality? I dunno.

Google News would be great, but it is just too much (InformationOverload). I’m trying to use NewsMap instead.
