I've been collecting links all day, but haven't really had time to post until now. So here goes:

* How shoes wreck your feet. Via MeFi.

* The Official Village Voice Election-Season Guide to the Right-Wing Blogosphere, with helpful descriptions of modus operandi and approximate stupid:evil ratio.

* Are lefty political bloggers the New New Left? Maybe, but if this is true we really need to get someone correcting Matt Yglesias's typos full-time.

* Proximity: "somewhat like a cross between Risk and Go." Sold!

* More on the food crisis at the Economist. Good discussion at MeFi.

* And in astoundingly cool news, they've finally perfected the bionic eye.
