mainly news and decorating stuff.... I prefer european news sites to american ones, since the american ones are frequently obsessed with trivial BS... (enough already with senator craig... and don't waste your breath on paris hilton or the helmsley dog's inheritance... more interested in north koreas nuclear disarmament)
bbc news deutsche welle
for decorating, apartmenttherapy.com, and several modern websites (unica.com, retromodern.com, exitart.com)
