I was looking to get a couple of good sources for queer news.

I have a daily routine of checking these so far:
http://www.365gay.com
http://www.advocate.com
http://www.pinknews.co.uk
http://www.queerty.com
http://www.pamshouseblend.com
http://www.blogactive.com

Sometimes I will check some others but I really like the ones above, although I have some issues with Queerty and Blog Actives approach, they do share some interesting gossip.

Here's another one:

http://www.goodasyou.org/


Described as: Gay and Lesbian Activism With a Sense of Humor -- Good As You (G-A-Y)

The masthead lists: Gay Lesbian Straight Bi Trans


Note: As a hetero ally, I will just add that not only are LGBT people "good as you" (as good as straight people) ... LGBT people in general are very often BETTER than most straight people. : )

PS Amen to the kudos for Pam of Pam's House Blend ... an excellent blog!

Thanks Sherrie Z for being such a cool person, the queer community always needs straight allies, well as civil rights struggles do. You rock! <3

YouTube has some awesome discussions about GLBTQ issues. I was watching some of them last night and laughing my butt off at a couple of the funnier ones.

I can't think of any other sites at the moment, though.

Gay/Lesbian Wire
Comprehensive News Feed for Gay/Lesbian.
http://www.topix.com/wire/news/gay

Constantly updating as articles become available. Great for up to the minute, and often for potentially obscure stories and websites that may normally go unnoticed.

I tend to check it out when I get bored with my favorite haunts, or if I'm looking for something to write about.

And I can't say enough good about Good As You (http://www.goodasyou.org/):
Described as: Gay and Lesbian Activism With a Sense of Humor -- Good As You (G-A-Y)

'Sense of humor' is an understatement, modest Jeremy (@G.A.Y.) is a comic genius--consistently. Even more interestingly is perhaps his ability to slay the ugliest of ugly dragons with the utmost of grace and creativity. I really almost find it a lesson in non-violence, albeit in a very, very entertaining way...;);)

I like topix, youtube is interesting at times but there is tons of homophobia on there and I find myself fighting against the "ex-gay" and the haters.
