Replied to: Are you still using RSS feeds to get your news?

Although most here say yes , I think they are part of the ~5% who do. I think the majority of people get their news from either twitter/facebook/tumblr, or actually checking their favorite sites daily.I no longer subscribe to any of the tech news sites like Techcrunch, these websites push out too many updates. Instead, I use it to keep track of those websites which only publish content sparingly, say once a day or once a week; those websites which publish awesome content, but not often enough that it would be worth going to their website every day.At first I did this by using Feedly's "favorites" feature but eventually I just moved all those must-read sources into a folder called favorites which I always read through first, the rest I only read if I have extra time.
