I've added a few new blogs to the feed lately and thought some of you might like them, too. My apologies if you've been reading any of these for years and I'm late to the party:
Neatorama: I think I saw this once a while back, but it's a fun smattering of all things random from the internet. Today I checked out a pretty cool series of wine glasses ...
