What’s on your mind today? What three URLs have you been looking at more than usual today? I wish I remembered where I saw this question asked (or who asked it) over the weekend (it must have been on Twitter).
Here are the three URLs that are my mind today:
1. MarketingVox – whether it’s great stats or interesting/breaking news items in the online marketing world, nothing beats MarketingVox. I was just reading an amazing article they published today called, Online Journalists Pin Hopes on Ads, Fret about Values. It’s actually astonishing how often they have relevant news items and articles.
2. Google News – through the personalization to the global perspective, Google News has quickly become one of the only tabs I always keep open and frequently refresh in my browser. Some of the more "breaking news" I tweet about usually comes from something on Google News. Today, it’s been used mostly to keep up on the earthquake in Italy and the North Korea rocket launch.
3. Online Journalism Blog – This is one of those Blogs that is so rich with content on a constant and consistent basis that it’s almost overwhelming. Almost. Today, I was catching up on the post, What’s the future for local and regional media? If you like this one, Journalism 2.0 is also amazing. That one had a post today titled, The future of journalism depends on the future of the Internet. Great stuff.

http://twitter.com – I get live feeds on news and what is currently going on in my network of people as well as web sites that have Twitter updates. The thing I love is that it’s live and upon refreshing the page it gets updated.
My three sites today were:
http://www.5days.ca/montreal – I was keen to see how much our students raised for Dans la Rue by sleeping on the streets outside Concordia for 5 days.
http://www.craigslist.ca for apartment hunting
http://www.twitter.com – to see what everyone was up to.
I saw it on Jeff Pulver’s tweetstream.

Google News (same as you, it has become one of the only tabs I always keep open).
ieee.org (it’s a great source of technical knowledge for a business analyst working on complex IT solutions for business problems)
twitter.com (trying to understand how to make this platform work for small companies, and wondering why the people there I might want to follow keep mixing personal notes with their professional thoughts – which to me is a huge turn-off).
Great post idea Mitch!
