If I run across a particularly interesting post--linked from a favorite blog, or HN or reddit--I'll often subscribe to the site's rss feed for a week or two on the strength of that experience. If the site's quality is consistently good, it stays in my feed reader. Otherwise it's booted fast. As a bonus, that high-quality site will probably link to other things I've never heard of, which might be worth reading long-term. There's no universal recipe, and very few good aggregators online. But you can usually depend on the principle that good stories will link to other good stories.
