Everyone's talking about the thing I want to talk about now.

Websites, blogs, RSS feeds and podcasts that you consider essential for staying in-the-know in IT, ready, list 'em.

If you're in networking, packetpushers and their blog contributors' blogs. Their podcast has a bunch of flavors (news, deep dives, techy generalia).
