Does it have to be paper?

I pull RSS feeds from MacNN, 9to5Mac.com, MacRumors.  Actually, between 
the three, there's a lot of duplication and since 9to5 shows up first 
in my reader, I often read things there and then skip over basically 
the same info elsewhere.

Oh, yeah, MacOSXHints, too.

Add in Ars Technica, MacSparky (just found this one), and maybe Pogue's 
blog at NYT, perhaps also toss in Daring Fireball, too.

I dunno why certain folks think RSS is dead.  No way I'd go to all 
those websites every day to see what was going on.  Given a decent 
reader it's trivial to browse through them and pick out the bits and 
pieces I want to read.

Not that Apple ever made a decent reader.  Having RSS feeds into Safari 
was pitiful.  NetNewsWire and Reeder (waiting for the latter to come 
out with another update, btw) both put Apple to shame, as did 
Reader.Google.com.  A pox on Google for killing that off, too.

Happy to hear other recommendations, btw.
