Last week, I posted on giving, and I mentioned that information can be an excellent way to give back. But with all the information available, and all the demands on our time, how can we keep up?
Getting your news on the go is what I am finding works the best. Google Reader is an excellent (and free) way of keeping up with news and blogs. They have an excellent mobile site, so you can access it from your smart-phone almost as easily as from your computer. The Washington Post just updated their mobile site, and I have been very happy with the redesign. The New York Times has an iPhone app that I use for accessing their site. I haven’t made a study of it, but I am certain other major papers have similar mobile access.
There are a myriad of mobile apps for keeping up with Twitter. The one I have been using is Twitteriffic for my iPhone. There is a free, ad-supported version that does everything I need.
What about you? What are you using to keep up with news on the go?
