Anyone who is at the very least semi-serious about growing their blog, or learning more about their subject, knows, you never stop reading. There is always something on the internet worth reading in your niche and anyone who says otherwise is either a liar, in denial, or not looking hard enough to find it. The information is out there and it won’t come to you, you have to go and find it.

That being said, I have two main sources for my information: RSS Feeds and Twitter. However, the majority of the people that I follow on Twitter, I also subscribe to their RSS Feed. I know with using Twitter, I have the advantage of seeing ReTweets from the people I’m following, but I like the convenience of RSS better as I use Mozilla Thunderbird to subscribe to feeds so I get them with my email (they’re in separate folders so they don’t conflict with each other if you’re wondering). I currently subscribe to close to 70+ RSS feeds and about half are updated daily. I previously posed the question Is Twitter the RSS Killer? Maybe it is, maybe it isn’t, however, as I mentioned above, I actually prefer RSS for a number of reasons.

What I’m wondering is, as the title suggests, where do you find your “reading material”? What is your blog, your business, your site, your whatever, about and what do you find to be the most effective means of finding new information, whether it’s for your site, or for your personal learning? Please share and hopefully we can all find some new means of gathering information.
