Where Do You Get Your IT News?

Posted by Cliff on from the somewhere-else-than-here dept.

whiggy asks: "I am a network admin in a small company with predominantly Windows systems, with minimal Linux exposure. I am attempting to organize myself in order to be more productive. Of course, one of the things on my list is to keep up with the latest technology trends. I have several sites in my bookmarks that I visit daily, but I am just curious what other good resources are out there. What are your favorite sites (or other resources) you get your morning news from? Which ones are the 'must haves'?"

      Personally i stick to a couple of sources. For the consumer side of tech i use /. and El Reg. The Reg can be pretty funny at times too so its a good read.

      For the higher-end and more insightful tech industry news i use CBRonline.com and Business2. Both of these sites run interviews, etc with the leading lights at Sun, Novell, Oracle, MS, Adobe, etc, etc... Dont expect much humour though ;-)

    .. not too many places. Spoonfeed and popurls are great for feeds. Popurls wins IMO because of one cool feature: if a Digg link looks interesting, you can go directly to the article by clicking on the tiny button on the right edge of each link.
    P.S. Yet another horrible misuse of enlightenment's icon. Sad.

    I can explain it for you, but I can't understand it for you.

    Nowadays mostly here, and The Inquirer http://www.theinquirer.net/

    Some times also Ars Technica, Tom's Hardware and Anandtech. Gizmodo is fun to check from time to time.
