I think there's something positive to be said for a site like ours that I wish would be recognized by a larger audience. We of course offer our .02ยข, but even more than that, we aggregate the news from news aggregation sites.
One would think that amongst all the top blogs and news aggregation sites, there would be almost universal redundancy from one to the next, but that's not the case. Of course they all hit the main news stories, but the secondary things they choose to focus on provides a wide variety. We cherry-pick from them all, and bring the best here.
Hot Air though, has become a site that carries little that one cannot find easily elsewhere, and as I said earlier, they are often late to a story. Still, I go there out of habit. Their front-page format is clean and well organized.
