The master reading list – initial posting

Staying informed and continuously acquiring knowledge is key to maintaining one’s value. I’ve added a page where I’ll maintain the master list of knowledge sources that I typically scan through looking for interesting stuff to read.

Dedicated Link: http://aftershox.com/learning-list/

Getting Started:

• The easiest way to aggregate all these sources of content is to use the http://my.yahoo.com portal to source in most of these sites which have RSS feeds.
• Many of these sites have email subscriptions.
• FlipBoard (the mobile app and website, https://flipboard.com/) is also another great way to subscribe to a large variety of sources.
