Atom Feed SITE FEED   ADD TO GOOGLE READER

Ten blogs for your feedreader

I'm a big fan of blog feeds. As a blog author, they give me an audience to whom I can blast my ideas. And as a blog reader, I can grab the latest content from 159 blogs in just a few seconds.

If you're still surfing the web by hand, consider checking out Google Reader or another feed reader. You get more content with less effort. Adding a site to your feed reader is much better than bookmarking it - it's like TiVo for the web.

To seed your feedreader, here's some of my favourite feeds:
Ars Technica: tech news
Eric Burke: Java observations
Cédric Beust: Java developer productivity
Neal Gafter: the Java language
Stephen Colebourne: Java APIs
John Gruber: the Mac
Daniel Lyons: the Mac, but snarky
Tim O'Reilly: next year's technology
Joel Spolsky: running an small software shop
Raymond Chen: old school Windows

When given the choice, prefer Atom over RSS. It won't miscode "A & W" as "A & W".
