ASK HN: What Sites do you read for tech news?

3 points by userisme 12 years ago | 5 comments

Hello, I am a long time lurker and just signed up for an account today. I was wondering what sites you guys read for tech news/hackernews type sites? Thank you!

Generally speaking I just keep an eye on my twitter feed because I'm usually pretty busy.

On a day off, in addition to HN I'll occasionally check the following:

http://slashdot.org

http://boards.4chan.org/g/catalog

https://news.layervault.com

https://lobste.rs

http://techcrunch.com

http://www.technologyreview.com

but most of those are crap.

TechCrunch does some reporting on startups, so I look there.

I also have an account on https://lobste.rs, but I don't really use it.

A great site of general IT news that I read every morning is http://techmeme.com

I will check those two sites out. I do not really enjoy the writing on techcrunch but I appreciate you sending it my way.
