Question I love reading many tech sites daily, what's the best way to do that , now I go from site to site . Would twitter be a better way ? What do you all use ?
Thanks
 
m.machash (more geared toward apple news)
m.mobilitybeat (more geared toward android news)
m.technewstube (more geared toward tech sites in general)

Those 3 cover almost every tech site you could find on the web.

I scroll though each of them around 5 times a day :)
 
Rss would be the best way as it aggregates all your sites into a consistent layout and can keep track of which articles you read.

The downside is that google reader is shutting down today and the best alternative, feedly, kinda sucks.
 
Would twitter be a better way ?
Define your notion of "better". Give us your needs/wants/preferences. Twitter could be if it's suited to you but you've given us nothing to work with.

What do you all use ?
Delicious but that doesn't mean it's better for you. Don't just blindly poll. Always consider the source and its relevance to you. I'm guessing that if you're considering Twitter that you don't want to rely on what I prefer.
 
I use the Feedly website on my Mac and the Byline app on my iPhone (which connects to my Feedly account.) These use RSS feeds, which are by far the best way to keep up with hundreds of news sites. Look it up.

I used to use Google Reader, until it got shut down today. RIP.
 
Most tech sites post the same stories. I normally check two sites daily.

Engaget and All Things Digital. Sometime I'll read BGR, but most of their posts are opinion rather than news.
 
I use an app called flipboard. I check it right when I wake up. It's all technology sites/sources so you can't really pick what sites you're visiting. It's still pretty cool though.
 
I use Twitter the most and Pulse App occasionally as well, they both are great.

Twitter I have limited sites I follow and Pulse I have all that I would/want to follow and it has a great layout
