Happy New Year! Some links from your friends at Blogenberg to start your 2009 off right…

• The Wall Street Journal offers its annual list of lifehacks.
• “Bringing broadband to the urban poor” should be a priority anyway, but could happen sooner than later if infrastructure upgrades really are the centerpiece of the stimulus package sure to come out of Congress in early 2009.
• As if we needed further confirmation of print’s cloudy future, The Village Voice laid off one of our (at least this Blogen-editor’s) favorite trouble-making columnists, Nat Hentoff. (His syndicated column will continue, though.)
• Austin blogger Omar Gallaga shares his list of Twitter turnoffs.
• One of life’s great mysteries: the world’s most expensive toilets.
