The Web A to Z, Revisited

About three and a half years ago, I published a post listing which web sites my browser suggested when I typed each letter. Let's see how things have changed (or not).

• A is for The Anne Arundel County Public Libraries.
  
• B is for Board Game Geeks.
  
• C is for Google Calendar.
  
• D is for Google Documents.
  
• E is for ESPN.
  
• F is for Groundspeak (geocaching) Forums.
  
• G is for Google Reader.
  
• H is for Hilton.
  
• I is for It's Not About the Numbers.
  
• J is for Jehovah-Jireh Farm.
  
• K is for Somebody's blog I was looking at for a geocaching post.
  
• L is for Lakeside Veterinary Center.
  
• M is for GMail.
  
• N is for Netflix.
  
• O is for Online Go.
  
• P is for Prince George's County Libraries.
  
• Q is for QuestionPro, a polling site that the Washington Post uses sometimes.
  
• R is for the Redskins.
  
• S is for Yahoo! Sports.
  
• T is for Talking Points Memo.
  
• U is for United Airlines.
  
• V is for the Washington Times. For reasons unknown to me, I access their (written) Redskins coverage through video1.washingtontimes.com.
  
• W is for the Weather Underground.
  
• X is for Redskins Radio (aka Triple-X ESPN Radio).
  
• Y is for Youtube.
  
• Z is for zip...I have no web sites for Z.
  

How have things changed? Well, this time, I did the check during football season, so more Redskins stuff than just their site popped up. Also, I read a lot of content through Google Reader, so a number of sites don't pop up because I view their "feeds" more than the site itself. Ironically, Talking Points Memo, another one of the holdovers, appears there because I don't read its feed. I find it too hard to keep up with, but sometimes when I've cleared out the stuff in Google Reader, I head over there to see if there's anything interesting.

The Prince George's library system is another keeper, though they've changed letters. The fourth repeat site was United, so I guess I'm still flying too much.

This time, a lot of sites appeared with letters other than their main name. In particular, Google appears to own me. I can see some new interests I've developed in the past few years -- go, geocaching, buying meat directly from farms, and Netflix.

Hmm. Kind of interesting, but three and a half years seems about right.
