Are bloggers the heir-apparant of the independent weekly?
Welch: For all the history made by newspapers between 1960 and 2000, the profession was also busy contracting, standardizing, and homogenizing. Most cities now have their monopolist daily, their alt weekly or two, their business journal. Journalism is done a certain way, by a certain kind of people. Bloggers are basically oblivious to such traditions, so reading the best of them is like receiving a bracing slap in the face. It's a reminder that America is far more diverse and iconoclastic than its newsrooms.

KernelTrap: Open Source RSS feeds and blogs
KernelTrap aims to bring news about all open source kernels, not just the Linux kernel. However, at this time the majority of news posted to this site is Linux-centric. KernelTrap (also) has very dynamic RSS feeds.... of specific content.
Generally speaking, any KernelTrap URL that looks like '/taxonomy/view/...' can be turned into a feed by changing the word 'view' to 'feed'. Here are a few examples: Linux stories, FreeBSD stories, OpenBSD stories, and KernelTrap features.
