As a college professor I am often asked how did I learn “all this stuff” – lets face it most of what I do wasn’t taught in college when I attended as a student. (I graduated in 1998 – most colleges cannot change quickly enough to keep up with web trends as they can change from year to year, and sometimes faster – especially back then.)
What I do is follow several websites and blogs. They cover everything from copy writing, to design, to programming. I also use Stumble Upon to find fun things (as well as some design tools and articles).
So in addition to the normal information I provide, I thought I would provide you with links to my “link blogs” of where I find interesting information.
Stumble Upon – some of this is fun, some of it serious (I like odd photos, web stuff, and new innovative ideas as you can tell by looking at my stuff). There are actually two different links one for things I’ve found, others for things I’ve stumbled.
- My Stumble Upon Profile – web page
- My Reviews – RSS Feed
- Things I’ve Stumbled Upon and liked – RSS feed
Google Reader – I use this web based reader to track all of the blogs I read (about 80 total – some post multiple times a day, some don’t post but once or twice a week). This is a list of those that I’ve weeded out and found worthy of sharing.
