    I always wondered what's going on behind the scenes and I think they're more friends than enemies to be honest. Instead of trying to beat each other to their game it'd make more sense if they co-operated in ways.

    Anyway, check out how sweet Google, Yahoo and MSN are. They all link to eachother from their blogs:

    Google: What We Are Reading
    Yahoo: Industry Sources
    MSN: Sites We Read

    Those three lists look remarkably the same actually. They all forgot DP though :) Or they don't want to admit it in an attempt to not loose the competitive edge :D

    I was expecting at least one of them to be using the nofollow tag, that would have been funny. That is certainly a list you want to be on, congrats goes out to at least one member here I think.

    I too wonder what they're really reading.

    The "Aaron Swartz's Google Weblog " link on top of their "what we are reading" list is not working.

    I am not sure about how intensely they really read things in there. There is a lot of politics involved as well.
