Of course, it’s the time for Top 10 lists.  Here’s my contribution, a listing of the best new blogs I discovered (or re-discovered) this year:

10. Gmail Blog: Of course you use Gmail, so of course you want the latest news.

9. GraphJam: So, so funny.

8. Spiritual Politics: Mark Silk shoots straight.

7. Lessig Blog: Law prof Lawrence Lessig fights unnecessary copyright laws (and Sarah Palin).

6. MinnPost: This might be the future of newspapers — online and non-profit.

5. Get Religion: The MSM doesn’t “get” religion.

4. Presentation Zen: No bullet points. Ever.

3. Religion Dispatches: Smart, newsy, progressive writing about religion.

2. Zen Habits: Simplify your life.

1. Lifehacker: How to do everything better, cheaper, easier.
