I was updating my blogroll adding Jesse Walker's site when I realized that my categories "Cool" and "Political" don't quite work... I mean, Robot Wisdom is cool even though it is often political (with politics I often disagree with). Steven Den Beste is often political, but being an engineer can hardly be defined as cool.

So with apologies to Heather and Terry, I drew up a little graph of the Political/Cool spectrum including my blogroll, some frequent commenters, and some other crap. Anyone taking offense is advised to give a second thought to the source of the analysis, then to lighten up a bit...
