I'm wondering what people here read to keep up to date with the news. Lately i'm trying to set up Google Reader and i'm not particularly happy how so much crappy and irrelevant articles come from respectable sources. I want to keep abreast with important news without being bombarded with litter articles and poor filler journalism. I want to read news sources that intellectuals read. I was trying to find out daily habits and reading habits from the forbes billionaire list but so far no luck =(
My Google Reader sources are:
Tech:
Techmeme
techcrunch
arstechnica
lifehacker
slashdot
wired.com
readwrite
theverge
News:
Nytimes
the economist
abc news
Business:
gigaom
hbr.org
seth's blog
venture beat
fast company
I've been trying out different readers for android and pc and haven't quiet found a nice solution. I tried zite, pulse, feedly, flipboard, news360, google reader, google currents.
So far i'm sticking with feedly because it looks nicest on my s3 compared to google reader but sadly no effective way of filtering irrelevant/trivial content. I find even trying to digest the above list to be a burden and i really just want to read the BEST OF from each category. Something like digg but integrated in your google reader feed. I don't spend much time reading these feeds because there is so many articles spit out daily, it's unpractical to keep up. So i want to hear ideas how people balance productivity with their news/information diet. I usually just read in the toilet or waiting in queues.
So i'd like to hear:
1) Your news/information sources
2) How you digest this? Which apps?
3) When and where do you read?
4) How much time do you allocate for your daily/weekly information readings?
