• Israeli (in English)

http://www.haaretz.com Haaretz (most neutral newspaper in the entire Middle East, good website, first choice) [40]

And no, I am not exaggerating when I say that I visit some of these sites 40 times in a day. It is very rare for me not to be fully up to date on anything going on in Israel and the Netherlands, and major issues in the rest of the world.

Whoever wants to know: I contribute using a Dell Inspiron 2200 laptop, using WinXP-Home-SP2. I use IE6 at home and Firefox at work (occasionally at home also). I am a Microsoft-addict. Windows Media Player, MSN Messenger, you name it. But I love Google also, including Gmail and Google Video. And Wikimedia. The three companies / organizations I could not do without are without a doubt Microsoft, Google and Wikimedia.
