Over the last four years of blogging, I've developed a personal list of blogs and resources that I follow daily. What started out as primarily an elearning forum has evolved to include knowledge management, communities, technology and social trends, networks, etc.
Over the last while, I'm getting the urge to expand my information network. I still very much value the wisdom of "old friends", but desire to expand my existing thought/idea architecture.
So, which blogs and information sources do you find most valuable in your daily reading? I've opened the comment forum on this post (feel free to introduce your own blog!).

Wouldn't miss a day without it!
Posted by: MissJulie at June 17, 2004 5:36 PMThat's a toughy, I read almost 80 blogs per day. After brutal editing - list is down to 12.

My list...
Edu_RSS (which feels a bit like cheating, but it's my best source for the blogsphere)
Peter Suber's FOS news
The major mailing lists: DEOS-L, WWWEDU, TRDEV, etc
University Business Daily - I hardly ever link items from them but I read it for good background
CPEN's Public Education Newsblast (or whatever it's called)
education-india
E-Media Tidbits
Google Alert - I have some email and tech alerts set up, lots of good stuff there
Australian Flexible Learning Network (includes Networking as well)
UNESCO World Newsletter
Some Yahoo Groups: rss-dev, syndication, semantic web, elearning leaders, etc
Some magazines send me regular notices: First Monday, Ubiquity, Learning Circuits, EDUCAUSE Review - but most magazine articles I pick up from the blogosphere
What I want: better coverage of academic publications - journal articles are difficult to get, and even when online, are almost never in RSS feeds or anything similar; usually I get journal articles via direct reference (ie., someone emails me) or by random browsing
