I don’t really like seeing the links on the frontpage everyday. It takes away from your excellent commentary, the main thing that distinguishes you head and shoulders above other blogs.
If I want to see the news about Central Asia in link form, I’ll go to google news.

I suggest just the header: “links for 2006-01-14″ (or whatever date). No need to show the first 5 links or whatever. Just put “read more” and people will know what to do if they want to read the links.
