Another useful (or at least cool) thing I’ve found through 43 Folders is del.icio.us, a social bookmark aggregator. I haven’t done much with it yet, but we’ll see.
How it works: You register for a (free) account. Then you can dump URLs in with descriptions and tags (keywords). You can view by tag, so if a bunch of people are all tossing stuff in with the same tag, it’s a handy way to highly focus site discovery on a particular topic. For example, the page for links with the osx tag, or the one for webcomics.
And each of those pages has its own RSS feed, so you can have your RSS reader (you do have an RSS reader, don’t you? I’m currently using NewsFire) check for new links automatically.
BTW, LiveJournal pages have RSS (and Atom) feeds too.

I have an hourly cron job that grabs a local copy of linkdump, and I include that in my weblog home page.
Have you fooled around with Getting Things Done yet? I bought a copy from the bookstore around the corner.
