Where should you go for LGBT news?

That's the question we've been hearing over and over, once we announced that 365gay was closing.

There is Twitter, of course, which is a great way to get the absolute latest in news. But here are my suggestions of LGBT news-focused sites to read regularly, based on a combination of what I read, what people I know read, and accepted wisdom. Note that I have NOT included mainstream sites like the NY Times, though they do a very good job of covering gay issues.

And I'm limiting it to news (or news-ish) sites.

I'm sure I've left folks out - be sure to put your faves in the comments.

Support your local - and internet - gay media so they can support you!
