On my front page sidebar, you'll see a new item labeled "BlurBlog". These are links to interesting articles from sites I read and which I resyndicate via the rss reader newsblur. You can click through individual links to visit the original pages, or the "BlurBlog" heading to see larger extracts from the articles and subscribe to the BlurBlog as an rss feed.

This is of course prompted by Google's decision to shut down reader. To me, NewsBlur looks like a good alternative, and I'm excited about particularly excited about the blurblog feature.
