Getting News Quickly
Getting information from around the world via the Internet is an essential part of my daily routine and... I want to get it fast and effectively. It occurred to me that other people may have similiar needs, so, here are a few of my favorites.
BBC News provides excellent coverage on world news and events. Their navigation by geographic region and subject is easy and fast. They also provide a (modest) Technology section.
Digg is a first-rate aggregator and their technology section rocks. Dozens of technology articles can be scanned in just a few minutes. Definitely worth checking out.
Technorati Top 100 Blogs is worth a peek from time-to-time. A check-in once or twice a week will quickly give you some idea as to which of the top 100 blogs are cooling down or hotting up in terms of blogger interest.
Techcrunch provides excellent insight, screenshots and commentary on current technology innovations, including new Internet-based applications and services. I wish my understanding of Web 2.0 was greater as lack of knowledge is limiting my ability to understand the significance of the ideas embodied within Techcrunch.
As a Canadian living in Toronto, the Globe and Mail provides Canada's best daily business news, a reasonably decent overview of the national news and a more limited overview of regional news. The Toronto Star provides superior news coverage for the Province of Ontario and Greater Toronto Area (GTA).
