Feeds for thought

My reader is crammed with goodies at the moment, so I though I’d share five of the more recent additions.

First up is the Guardian’s Writers’ Rooms series, which features in the Saturday edition. Gives a great insight into where great writers do their stuff. Sebastian Faulks is the most recent, but it includes Gillian Slovo, Anne Enright, Roald Dahl and Charles Darwin.

Along a similar vein is Sinead Gleeson’s Musical Rooms, which does the same thing for musicians great and small. Can’t believe I’ve gone so long without bookmarking either of these first two.

University Diary comes from the keyboard of DCU president Ferdinand von Prondzynski. Great to see high-level academics really understanding the blog’s purpose and tone of voice.

The Editors’ Weblog is a must-read for journos and media types, and comes with less dross than the Columbia Journalism Review feed, which I’ve axed as it was just too much (go find it yourself if you must).
The Guardian’s Belief blog is good if, like me, you’re a bit obsessed with thoughts on religion. Great diversity of opinion.

Sail Mike is like the Trust Tommy of the sailing world, a teenager who’s sailing non-stop around the world, on his own, and blogging the whole trip. Pretty damn impressive.
