One of the first things I read this morning was this great news, or so I first thought—Globetechnology- Yahoo buys Konfabulator. Konfabulator, now a Yahoo property now free! Cool! Download, download, download. Wait. I seem to remember now that my once powerful laptop (2.5 years ago) is now rather underpowered to say the least so, I'll have to pass. I'm running enough stuff as it is. 
Now, then I caught this on Steve's blog—Micro Persuasion- CNET Starts Linking to Blogs—mentioning this new, interesting site from CNET called Blogma—Konfabulous | Konfabulous | News.blog | CNET News. Blogma is supposed to cover a story a bit, then reference other blogs as additional material. Actually it's pretty cool, might be better than getting Scobleized or Slashdotted, in terms of traffic, not in terms of coolness but traffic.
While CNET is doing a great thing, they have trackbacks and comments, and permalinks, they don't have a "homepage" per se. There isn't a Blogma page to start on an skim the last few articles. It appears that you have to start on one and see what recent posts have been made. Eewww. Not good.
I'm willing to give it a chance though ... this is really the next step in journalism. Write a short intro then say ... "These people all have great things to say on this topic, go read them ... " Nice.
