Ask HN:How do you get your daily news?
5 points by criddar 5558 days ago
Do you use RSS, Twitter, Hacker News, Reddit, other, or some combo? If more than one place, what would a site look like that could consolidate them? Or would that even be worth trying?

1) Approx. 100 RSS feeds read on Reeder on iphone or ipad through out the day 2) Read Financial Times at lunch everyday 3) Check out Digg & Reddit when on the toilet (really great place to read news quickly, all joking aside) 4) Scan Twitter at night to see what I missed
I an avid user of Reeder on the iPhone too. I use FeedDemon on the desktop. But honestly, when it comes to the deuce, I'm in and out - no time to read. Never really thought of the BR as a great place to chill, lol.
It has only been in recent that I started doing so as well.

I have even thought about changing the tag line on my Iphone when I send am email that says: "Sent from my Iphone" to "Sent from the john"

I use RSS with Google reader, in addition to HN consumed from http://hckrnews.com. Most of my general news stories come from http://slatest.slate.com.
I like the Top 10 by Day view on that hckrnews site.
To find out the latest news I go straight to Twitter, otherwise it's HN and Slashdot
google reader. I read about 75 sites that way (including various craigslist searches to buy things)
