Ask HN: What blogs/sources do you read?

2 points by java-man 12y ago

I am developing a news personalization service (won't mention the name, it's not important) which currently scans about 300 sources: tech, security, science. I would like to query the collective wisdom of the HN community. What blogs or sites do you find insightful? interesting? original? Thank you.

  Thank you. The problem with HN-like sites is that they are nearly impossible to analyze, since they function more like crowdsourced link aggregators rather than original sources. An example of a "good" (in my opinion) source is Sean Carroll's blog: http://www.preposterousuniverse.com/blog/ http://www.preposterousuniverse.com/blog/

"News" is awfully broad. Nevertheless... For me it means: www.nakedcapitalism.com www.eschatonblog.com asserttrue.blogspot.com thinkprogress.org www.scoop.it/t/news-that-doesn-t-fit

  Very interesting, thank you. "News" is indeed broad, since blogs do not qualify for news. something that you want to read and follow, I guess.
