Happy New Year to all of you!  I had a wonderful holiday and one of my New Year's resolutions is to write more frequently.  Today, I only have a few minutes, but I wanted to share three of my favorite tech web destinations.

  1. TWiT (This Week In Tech with Leo Laporte): My iPhone is always filled with the latest netcasts from Leo Laporte.  He's got over 15 niche shows starting with the more general This Week in Tech, the very technical Security Now!, to my personal favorite,  MacBreak Weekly.  What makes Leo interesting to me is that he's built a profitable tech empire without the help of traditional mainstream media.
  2. Slickdeals.net: This is a great web community for finding the best online shopping deals.  While most of the deals are tech-related like new computers and video games, you can also find deals on clothing and food.  Here's a great example: JetBlue (my new favorite airline due to the personal video screens with in-flight DirecTV) is running a Winter Sale with great deals on air travel.
  3. gdgt: From Ryan Block and Peter Rojas, gdgt is not just another gadget site.  This is an community where users can interact with other gadget enthusiasts.  Tell others your experiences with your favorite electronic toys.  Feel free to friend me on gdgt!

That's it for now.  Check back in the coming weeks for some new reviews of Boxee and Zinc.  It will be interesting to see if either of these programs are viable Internet TV portals.
