ZDNet blogs -- telling it like it is
I had one of those days this morning when I go to the ZDNet blogs page and find literally 20 entries worthy of comment. I'm at work for the first time in five days, and I have about three Firefox windows open with between five and 20 tabs each. I open a few other programs, and the whole thing starts turning to sludge.
I have to close everything and reboot.
I could open all of those entries again, plus the six or so on LXer, worthy of blogging on, but let me just say that ZDNet has hit on a very good formula for tech blogs that are heavy on news in many different sectors of the tech world. Windows, Mac, Linux, SAAS, storage, digital cameras, education, project failures, green technology, mobile technology ... and more that I'm forgetting about. Let's just say there's a lot there -- and you will have a pretty good grip on the day's tech news if and when you visit.

About this blog
ZDNet is owned by CNET Networks which also hosts dozens of blogs here and at TechRepublic.
The connection between ZDNet, CNET and TechRepublic baffles me. There doesn't seem to be much cooperation between ZDNet and CNET ... and the ZDNet blogs page is done so very well, I wonder why CNET doesn't copy it -- CNET's gives you much less information on the blog entries and just isn't as good, period.
I just checked out TechRepublic, and the blogs there look pretty interesting -- lots of good info -- with many how-tos -- for systems-administrator types.
