    What method do you use to stay up to date?

    I used to swear by the BlackBerry News app but ever since the native twitter app allowed for multiple account sign-ins I hardly use it.

    The way my 2nd twitter account is set up I follow all the tech blogs/people that interest me and use the timeline as a real-time RSS feed.

    Same goes for my playbook but I use Blaq.

    Of course I have the info separated by source but I like going through it and find myself reading up on things I wouldn't have before.

    Twitter is the main source of news for me on a daily basis. But I do also use SideSwipe for other news as I can search specific topics.

    I also have a Sky News app to get my local UK news fix.

    I use Flipboard and then I check out a few blogs/news sites here and there.

    I am in the Web camp. All the other options I use sparingly with the exception of
    Podcasts which I have absolutely no tolerance for.

    I just started using Twitter after hearing about it constantly and it's proving to be a good news source. Still, I prefer to browse specific websites but I suppose that could change.

    I use
    1: Websites N4BB - BlackBerry news, forums, leaks, rumors, how to , globeandmail.com, linkedin.com, lifehacker.com, crackberry.com, engadget.com from time to time
    2: twitter
    3: BBM Groups


    Twitter brings me to enough other sites outside of those sites listed, and BBM groups fill me in on all kinds of things I don't bother following on twitter

    Twitter is my most used source, followed by RSS feeds.

    I agree so much!
    I hate podcasts almost as much as I hate talking to my phone.

    Podcasts are fun for like the first 7 minutes or so. Then I get bored. Usually with the podcasts I TRY to listen to it's because they advertise that they're talking about something I'm interested in, but the podcast is an hour long and they're also talking about 3-4 other things. I don't have the patience to listen to the whole thing to get to the segment I want to hear!

    Hi! I use Tech On! for technology news.
    It has built-in 40 Tech RSS feeds, I didn't worry on configuring it! You can also add the feeds you like if they are not present at start.
    Also you can post news to your Twitter account. I definitely like it! You can have more details here
