I initially did basically a DFS-walk originating at a few websites I liked, with some filtering criteria that deprioritized websites that didn't look too interesting. Now that I have a fairly comprehensive mapping of the space I want to index, I use a few factors like frequent outbound links from highly ranking domains to inform which new sites to index.
