Fark is a really good blog. It contains loads of stories in brief with the link to the full article. Sounds pretty normal right? Wrong its a tad quirky and has little tags next to each story which categorize each news piece under headings like 'sad', 'obvious', 'scary', 'weird', 'interesting', 'stupid', 'silly','sick', 'cool' etc. Its good because it stops you wasting your time on pointless stories.

ALso interesting article form Jossip with good list of other blogs
