Thanks for the mention Robert. The reason those sites were removed is that this list is for the non-techy. It is for the average Joe who wants to understand quickly what all the hype on the net is about.
Noah, cool, I would probably send folks to BBC or sites like that then. Yahoo Finance. A good news site. A good email client.

Harder to comment? And that's a good feature? Merely making something hard to use, doesn't equal goodwill. She doesn't attract the "negative posters", because she is a private person, and not of the hyperbole sort, she is not a spokesperson for a quite controversial company, and she is not one given to crazy loony statements that are half said just for their traffic value. If you'd switch to MSN Spaces, you'd still get the "negative" flack. For I'd be there. :)
Wow, what would be the marketing tagline? MSN Spaces: Harder to Comment, Less Conversations!

Christopher: believe me, in talking with people that'd be just fine with some folks.
But, you can always add comments to something hard to comment on (or, even impossible). Just start a blog of your own!

I'd substitute Newsgator for Bloglines, but that's a personal preference. Only one immediate thought on anything missing, especially if we are talking non-tech, which is that I'd add Pandora.

Me, I can't live without flickr, memeorandum, technorati, and a spanish Digg clone called meneame.net.
Ok, maybe this last one is too local for the guide... 8-)

Of course, I am missing podcasting - not everyone is happy with just text or video.
Therefor I suggest Odeo (http://www.odeo.com/listen/featured/) as a portal to explore different podcasts and users as well as IT Conversations as a premier source of all kind of interesting podcasts.

I would add geocaching.com for the way it is merging our physical planet with the web.

Hi Robert: I'm glad you liked the article Jeff and I wrote. It was a way for me to get a debrief and write a story about your event at Engelbart's, while I was stranded in soggy Sonoma Cuonty. I made the correction, my apologies for the error. Looking forward to meeting you in person next time.
