Life With Cables
The New York Times sports many fantastic blogs, but perhaps its most off-beat is artist Christoph Niemann's blog "Abstract City." Once a month Niemann posts a "column," which for him is a series of images—not unlike a mix of New Yorker cartoons, Pop Art and Far Side comics—that relate to a certain theme (usually involving New York City). Completely accessible, and a good dose of brain candy.
