A few weeks back Jeremy Zawodny posted a link to his blogroll . Yesterday I spent a hour or so skimming though it looking for interesting feeds with a few to updating what I read. I've picked out a few.

Out with the old
First of all I decided to get rid of a few I no longer read or aren't interested in.

• ".nz news and views" - Finished a few months ago, domain seems to be gone.
• Griffin's Gadgets - Not many posts, no usually interesting, I guess him and the herald like each other now.
• The RIGHT Kind of Girl - No posts, can't remember why I subscribed.
• Gryfon - few post, mostly personal stuff.

Recent arrivals.
A couple I have recently added

• 10layers.com - NZ tech opinions, a rebirth of techremarks.com.
• The Daily WTF - Amusing tech stories.

New and in beta
A few I've added since yesterday.

• Anil Dash - Seems interesting, tech blog version.
• confusedofcalcutta - P Rangaswami.
• Ben Metcalfe - Web 2.0 type guy, seems to moving jobs so I'll see how he goes.
• Aaron Swartz - The guy behind web.py and various other projects
• All Things Distributed - Werner Vogels, CTO of Amazon, personal weblog
