I was going back and forth between punknews.org, engadget, joystiq for xbox and occassionally cnn or other major news sites. This is my first "social news aggregator" as well, although I had heard of digg before but never checked it out. I saw my friend on reddit all the time but didn't wanna just 'copy' him but when my brother turned me on to it i twas all uphill (or downhill) from there.

I hate how I take half the reddit titles for granted and I believe while the site is great for having lots of stuff in one place, its not great for doing your own research or always getting both sides of the story. Thats probably the liberal bias, which is usually ok, but I realize I need to be looking at the other side more often.

As long as theres no group of liberal redditors just downvoting all the important conservative news :-P
