News-searching Habits
I use my twitter account, @conzatorium, mainly as a news aggregator. I follow about 350 sources, including general news, high tech, marketing, Boston-area events, and comedy.
For news, I like to hit Google news first thing in the morning, but that doesn't give a satisfactory number of headlines. I also punch "Business" and "Sci/Tech" from there.
Some people breathlessly post links on Twitter that sound interesting, but when I follow them, I find myself spending more time trying to figure out if it means anything at all rather than absorbing what it means. Often it has one, two or three interesting buzzwords or -phrases, but it doesn't constitute a whole notion.
