I care about the weather because I play golf. Other weather sites are riddled with advertisements. Weather Spark, for now, has no ads and a nice user interface. I approve.

I don't love all the advertisements for me to upgrade, but otherwise, I love how yousendit.com makes it easy for me to send large attachments like photos, videos and music all for free. So I put up with the ads and love it anyway.

Really isn't a better site out there for camera equipment. Customer service, selection and quality of products are all great. Prices are market, but it is my belief that in this world you get what you pay for.

Forget Bing and Google, I find Kosmix's search engine to be more useful than both. It pulls useful data from a number of sources including forums, wikipedia, how-to websites, and others. It also suggests related searches that I often find helpful. Admittedly, I don't use it more than Google, but I do use it whenever I am really researching topic.

I won't eat at a new restaurant without checking Zagat's guide. I also enjoy the Michelin Guide but it does not cover as many restaurants as Zagat's. I do not trust reviews on sites like Yelp's because all reviews seem to converge to 3.5 stars and the reviewers seem often not to know what they are talking about when it comes to food.

Fibromuscular dysplasia is an important and under diagnosed disease in the US. Fmdsa.com has some good information, but you can also read a recent WSJ article: http://online.wsj.com/article/SB**************.html - 5% of Americans may have it and are undiagnosed. Women are particularly susceptible.

The Economist is the best source of news analysis anywhere. I read the Wall Street Journal to learn what happened. I read the Economist to understand why its important. The website is not that well designed but I tend to read it more often than the print edition (because it's more convenient) but both are well worth the money.

After the Wall Street Journal, I find Charlie Rose to be one of the best sources of information on current events. His interviews with world leaders give more insight into what's going on in the world than any other website on the internet.

There are a lot of ads on WebMD, but it still remains a reliable source for health information online. I don't google health information any longer because I don't trust most websites, but WebMD has real physicians reviewing content. Other good health websites are the Mayo Institute and Revolution Health.

Really the only international authority on fine dining. Zagats and Yelp are okay for casual Tuesday dinners, but if you want expert restaurant reviews, you should choose the Michelin Guide. I personally enjoy the New York and San Francisco guides. The only guide I have heard serious criticism of is the Japan Guide.

I know downloading copyrighted files is wrong, but Torrentz is a good way to download music and movies for free... and if you really like it, you can go onto iTunes and buy it to support the artists.

The first place I go when I'm planning a trip is Kayak so I can see the full range of prices and options on my flights. Kayak is not quite as good at hotels, particularly in non-mainstream locations, but for flights it's the best.

I travel a lot for business and have long legs. I won't choose a seat on a plane I'm unfamiliar with unless I've checked it out first on Seat Expert.

I won't stay in a hotel in another country unless I've read about it first on Trip Advisor. The site isn't so good for other travel topics, but for hotels, it's the best.

Nothing better than The Wall Street Journal free on your Blackberry - I used to spend all my time writing emails on my Blackberry. Now I spend all my time reading the Wall Street Journal. This free application allow you to read the full text of all WSJ articles on your handheld. It's great. It's fast and has great customer service (mine was broken, they fixed it within 24 hours). The only negative is that you cannot email yourself or anyone else full text articles.

Jeremy Grantham with more sage advice on markets - No one did a more articulate job predicting this financial crisis than Jeremy Gratham. He's a king among men and perhaps the world's best financial commentator.

His new interview on the financial crisis and why stocks are probably still not cheap should be read by all investors:

The best economics policy blog - Greg Mankiw is a bit conservative, but he is a great economist and a brilliant thinker. His blog is a great combination of reasonably objective analysis combined with a great summary of important economic happenings and papers. This is a must read if you care about the economy.

It's rare to see local news done right online. However, the Steamboat Pilot seems to be doing it. The site has a great local feel with a focus on what matters to the community. It doesn't try to overreach by covering a lot of national or international news which people can find elsewhere. The layout is also clean and professional (so many local online news sites are not). I've never been to Steamboat Springs but this site had made me want to visit.

The new Wall Street Journal site design is horrible - Call me old fashion, but I do not like the new Wall Street Journal website design. I can't skim the headlines in a single column like I used to...
