The Web, Revisited

Yes, I know its Sunday, but I simply couldn’t wait to share info on some exciting new sites. Remember there’s more out there than Facebook and Twitter.

1) The Atlantic’s new opinions aggregate, The Atlantic Wire, launches this week. The site chooses 50 of the most influential thinkers and opinions writers who shape our thinking and foster public debate. Join the conversation.

2) A new way to search: Google fast flip allows users to search multiple magazine sites for a specific topic. Pages virtually flip from one article to the next. A quicker, more efficient way to scan a variety of sources.Great for indulging my celebrity obsessions and Internet ADHD.

3) I’m also loving the NY Time’s new  Visual Journalism blog. Incredible photographs and video from some top notch journalists.  Taking visual journalism to the next level.

Bonus: My new television obsession,  Glee.  Its sooo New Trier Forensics team circa the late 90′s. In the pilot there’s an acapella version of Journey’s Don’t Stop Believing and a main character who posts a weekly MySpace video of her musical theater performances. What’s not to love?
