Blogday 2006 -- Today is Blogday, the goal of which is to link to five blogs not previously linked to before. Last week the venerable Boing Boing (no, that's not one of my five) caught my attention with a pointer to a surreal cartoon featuring Sluggo from the old Nancy strip, which led me to the current surreal work of Jim Woodring at The Woodring Monitor (#1), on which I found a reference to The Blog Reader (#2), a compendium of what look to be quality reads, including The Grub Report (#3), covering one of my favorite things in life -- the appreciation of good food.
360 Pixels (#4) is a new photoblog from my co-worker, Ayash Basu. Nice stuff, even if I didn't know him.
These are probably more appropriate for my other Unfocused blog, but there is not much that I've been reading and feel worthy of inclusion that I haven't previously linked to in the topics usually dealt with in Focused Performance. But more in line with the usual subject matter, although this one might not technically be a blog, I'll suggest Booz Allen Hamilton's strategy+business has added a pile of RSS feeds (#5) since I last looked that often provide some interesting biz-think pieces. (hmmm...maybe I have linked to them before. Too bad.)
