Keeping Current
You may be wondering how I keep up with what's going on with the Web. As with anyone, it's a matter of consulting a variety of different sources: websites, blogs, news, tweets. Regular reading is important, but you don't have to do it every day. It really isn't possible to keep up with everything. But you can stay in touch with trends without too much trouble.
Some of the sites noted below can be followed in a variety of ways: on their websites, through RSS feeds, on Facebook or Twitter, etc. The alternatives are shown on the websites, so look around once you get there.
