Default Science News

Lately i see a lot of articles regarding new technological developments... being interested in the subject myself, do you actually check them daily or are there newsletters an interested person might sign up?

Usually I get links to this stuff from friends and family.

So for me they travel memetically, organically. But I know some people check the sites regularly.

I have a few favorite sites that I check regularly. But mostly I get my stuff through research.

All my friends acknowledge my mastery in using the internet to find what needs to be found when it needs to be found in a relevant matter. I think it comes from 6+ years of University research for various papers and an aVersion to getting information from books that could be found more upto date Online (don't get me wrong... I love books and use em all the time. But info on the net if you can filter out the garbage can be so much more reliable and upto date). Darn... I have so many wasted credit hours and papers written it isn't even funny. *mutters something about switching degree plans 2 years in to something totally unrelated*

I have subscriptions to Science and Nature. Much better read in the toilet then News Of The World I doubt anything really important can pass my attention

Reading hard science on the toilet? What's wrong with you! Are you mad? The toilet is strictly reserved for works of fiction!

Really, I though the toilet reading was restricted to the sports section or Playboy!
