Just post a few of your favorite links, the ones you visit regularly:

Here are mine for now:

http://bbc.co.uk - Although sliding quickly in favor of aljazeera.net, hey -- i like the short blurbs and only 5 in the feed
http://gmail.com - Email sucks no matter what, but this is the best web-based client.
http://netvibes.com -- RSS reader
http://foxmarks.com -- Syncrhonize bookmarks

We room for them in my university profile, but I'm not sure how and why to put them there...any help?

Think of it as a magazine subscription to a site...basically it's like a news feed, you get new entries at the top of the list.
