Making it through my pile again. Actually, I think this is older than that. But Fast Company has this really fascinating article on "generation debt." The article features online money-management applications, mainly mint, which it calls the "Axe Bodyspray of personal finance." Yucky image. But interesting statistics in the article, e.g. "Americans under 35 spend 16% more than they earn, on average." That is depressing. They quote Ramit Sethi, saying "there's this dull throbbing sense of guilt that we should be doing something, but where do we start?" The problem is it's not an easy answer, it's one that comes with hard work, discipline and knowing oneself. But hey, if a website helps someone, I'm all for it.

That issue also published a list of huge blogs, most of which I had heard of but here's a few that are new to me: Blog di Beppe Grillo, Icanhascheezburger.com, for the lolcat-inclined, and TMZ.com.
