Ask HN: Which tech blog do you follow?
I had been following TechCrunch cuz everybody else was, but its turning to be pretty boring now. Frankly, I dislike the tabloid style posts of TechCrunch, a lot (and most of them are about Apple or Twitter).
Which blog do you follow?

- nitrogen 17y agohttp://www.phoronix.com/ http://www.phoronix.com/ http://www.groklaw.net/ http://www.groklaw.net/ http://arstechnica.com/ http://arstechnica.com/ Phoronix can be a good source of updates on a wide variety of software and hardware, and is the source of the biggest Linux benchmark suite, but can sometimes be shallow and dull. Groklaw is always insightful and informative. Ars is usually good, particularly Nobel Intent, but it is starting to drift into the realm of sensationalism.

- mahmud 17y agoI prefer to run into good articles, instead of chasing them down. RSS feeds and blog following can drain time fairly quickly; better search for what I want, if it's important enough it will find me.
- olliesaunders 17y agoBooks are also generally far superior for those who want to learn or develop themselves.
