Yes, xkcd is great for us techies.

My favorite is Day by Day . This cartoon revolves around four distinct characters and their interactions with daily life. Sam is an politically conservative engineer, married to Zed who is a retired US Army sniper. They have two daughters. Sam's best friend is Jan, a progressive who has inherited wealth. Jan in turn, is married to Damon - a conservative African-American. The strip revolves around current events, and how they are impacting each of the families - and their extended loved ones.

... to which the answer is no. "Caring about race" is racism, no matter which way you spin it - whether you're parading around in white sheets, or demanding scholarships because of the colour of your skin, you're still a racist. See here for an excellent pictorial explanation if you're still confused.

The main one IMHO is the ability to zoom on a page with not only the text made larger, but also with the graphics blown up. This is good for at least a couple of reasons:

1. If you end up on one of those web pages where #$%!@ designers render text as graphics so that they can be sure to inflict Joe's Bitchen Grunge Sans-Serif on you, you can still make the text large enough to read.

2. Until the day that web cartoonists all use SVG, if you're looking at a fine web comic like, say, Day by Day on your spiffy new 2000 x 1500 monitor, you can make it big enough to read.

Not to criticize js7a--he gave you fair warning--but his list leans to the left. I don't know if I have the definitive right-leaning counterexample, but here's a list of guys who are biased right but seem to be fair in their analysis...
mainstream media:
Best of the Web Today
Andrew Sullivan
The Corner
blogs:
Instapundit
oxblog
JustOneMinute
Daniel Drezner
Captains Quarters
cartoons:
Cox and Forkum
Day by Day

All are blogs and/or openly opinionated. They are generally right wing. This is in no way a complete list, and should not even be considered the "best of", since I haven't spent a lot of time exploring. YMMV.

I'd actually be interested in hearing from people who knew of right-leaning blogs not on this list that they recommended. I am not trying to start a flame war about who's better or why Instapundit/Daily Kos is a snooty liar.

You do not need to be aware of any information sources not sanctioned by Big Media

That being said, like a lot of fringe candidates, Dean actually has a few good ideas - like copyright reform and his general clues with technology - that stand out from his normal wackyness. With luck, other candidates from *both* parties will take notice of Dean's relative success and adopt accordingly.
