Every morning I go to the following three websites:

• New York Times – for news of the day and blogs like Economix
• Boston.com – nothing special in terms of news coverage but I need to at least keep tabs on what’s happening locally – that and they have Red Sox box scores
• Brad DeLong – because he points me to a lot of things worth reading

Many mornings I go to these as well – depends upon whether time permits:

• Paul Krugman (Conscience of a Liberal) – for insight into macroeconomic issues
• Jared Bernstein (On the Economy)- also for insight into macroeconomic issues

A half hour on those sites every morning and I feel I stay a reasonably well-informed citizen.
