Most of us spend enough time online now to count it as part of our daily reading. I try to limit my time online, but I see that it has gradually crept up over the past few years. Below is what I usually read online.
Daily:
1. E-mail, of course! This includes personal email, email related to my university, email related to my academic work, email from various organizations I belong to, etc.
2. Facebook. I know there are pros and cons, but I enjoy being in touch with so many people from different parts of my life. And my FB friends alert me to various news stories and social/political issues as well.
3. The New York Times. I read the headlines, and read a few articles in more detail.
4. InsideHigherEd. This is a sort of newsletter for academics.
5. The Writer's Almanac. I have written about this before; this comes from NPR; there is a daily poem, and some information about a couple of different authors or other literature-related topics.
6. Michael Bauer's blog on restaurants and issues related to dining out. Bauer is the San Francisco Chronicle's restaurant critic.
Sporadically:
1. Blogs by my USF colleagues.
2. Other restaurant blogs (besides Bauer's).
3. The Huffington Post.
4. Other political blogs and websites when I am alerted to them by my FB friends.
5. Blogs that let me catch up on what's happening on my guilty-pleasure TV shows that I don't actually have time to watch.
