But if we’re talking about content, utility, or creativity – then I’m with Mark. The volume of content has exploded, with diminishing returns. Blogs and same-as-the-other-guys big media sites dominate our attention, but I want to find sites that suck me in, that astonish and inspire me, that keep me up late.
