This is my take on it. If I run across hands that I'm not sure about or anything like that, this is the place I head. I'll also post about on my blog but it will most likely contain a lot of bitching too.
One thing that makes reading a shitload of blogs easier to manage is an RSS aggregator. All websites in one handy place, nice and easy to read. That's how I read almost all my daily websites now. There's maybe a 6 websites that I vist on a daily basis (not counting my morning round of comics) but in my aggregator I've got 35+ feeds coming in. I'd have more but some of my daily visits don't offer RSS syndication (like Negreanu's blog).
