Living in Hong Kong, I get my dose of local news from either Apple Daily or the South China Morning Post. I also pick up The Asian Wall Street Journal for a wider perspective. I used to read Wired and Business 2.0, but the content is not as compelling as it used to be. I always pick up Wallpaper.
Websites
I like surfing on design websites. One interesting site is www.devx.com. It tells you about leading-edge sites, although it's mostly Europe-centric. Virgin's radio site is another good one, featuring a variety of music, from hip hop to jazz. And because I love surfing, I tune into stormtracker.com to keep an eye on the waves.
Advertising
It's got to be Microsoft's Xbox ads. There's a lot of great creative and the concept fits in well with the product.
Radio
When I lived in Taiwan, I always tuned into radio channels UFO and ICRT. I don't listen to it too much here.
