I'm still watching sites like The Daily Beast, Huffington Post, Serious Eats, Gawker, Techcrunch and a slew of others. They've really pioneered a modern publishing model that can provide a bunch of best practices for all of us interested in what comes next.

Tina Brown's 1 year wrap up of the Daily Beast is a nice write up. Well worth reading if you want to hear from the heart and brain of the new model.
