Greasemonkey Script Makes Drudge Report More Readable

Like many, instead of getting my news from just one source, I prefer to go to a variety of places. This helps me to get a good sense of what is really going on in the world, not just what the AP, CNN, or Fox want me to know. One of the places I get news from is the Drudge Report. It basically consists of a compilation of headlines that take you to various news sources.

The site is pretty good, but one thing it lacks: any semblance of style. It literally gives me a headache looking at it. The content is spewed across the screen in a way that just really makes me not happy (I’m sure Ray would agree). But I found a solution. I found a Greasemonkey script (for those who don’t know what Greasemonkey is, stay tuned, there is a post forthcoming) that gives the site a slightly better look (it still isn’t great, but beggars can’t be choosers).

What news sources do you use? Do you use Greasemonkey? Let us know in the comments.
