My Top 10 Daily Stops in Cyberspace
Posted on 10. Sep, 2008 by Karen in Resources
As a blogger, I hang out in cyberspace quite a bit. And there are times when it’s like trying to take a journey around the world in only 1 day!! There’s so much to see.
So I’ve created a roadmap that helps me not jump all over the map. Here’s my top 10 daily stops:
- The New York Times online. I also get the breaking news alerts. What better way to stay on top of what’s happening close to home and around the world.
- Living Life Out Loud with my friend Michael. Great advice and wisdom from a gay man who describes himself as a straight girl’s best friend. He’s right!
- Women Bloom where friend Allison posts so much info it’s no wonder that her site is a popular “go to” resource for midlife women.
- The Boomer Chronicles where Rhea writes about all things midlife and has a kick-ass blogroll. Don’t miss her on Friday when she shares links to even more places to visit in the blogosphere. And btw — Boomer Chronicles was my very first stop out here as a blogger.
- Midlifebloggers started this year by Jane is already the latest hang-out for women of a “certain age” who aren’t afraid to tell it like it is. Jane hosts a ongoing “pot-luck” where women stop by with an article or an inspiring comment.
- Blogher, the hub for women bloggers world-wide who post info and commentary on virtually any topic you can think of and where I write as contributing editor.
- Viral Video Chart where all you can find all the latest videos “sweeping like wildfire” across the Internet.
- Facebook where I’ve made my first baby steps into social networking.
- My latest discovery, Alltop which Dan Roan, author of Back of the Napkin: Solving Problems with Pictures, describes with a great one picture worth a thousand words. Check out my new Alltop “Confirmation that I kick ass” banner on the Midlife’s A Trip sidebar.
- And of course, my home base right here at Midlife’s A Trip where I stop by everyday to post or read the great comments you leave.
So where do you hang out — out here?

Hey, Karen, thanks for the shout-out for The Boomer Chronicles. I am really glad you appreciate the blogroll, too. I never know if anyone notices it. I collect new stuff all the time, and frequently weed out the old stuff.

Great list, thanks for the mention! I wish I could be as organized as to say I have a list I look at every day. Unfortunately, many of my days feel like your LAST post with plenty of chaos to blow me off course! I often can’t manage every day, but I do my best!

Rhea–thank you for being an inspiration and resource.
Allison–you’re so welcome. And as for the chaos, it’s here often. I guess the real win is to not to avoid chaos completely, but to avoid letting it rattle us. A new project!!
Jane–so glad you started Midlifebloggers!
