My Favorite RSS Feeds # My favorite way to keep up with developments in the space is not using social media, but rather by using RSS feeds to get the latest long-form content from reliable and helpful sites and authors. I’ve uploaded my latest list of RSS feeds that I use in an easy-to-import OPML file to Github. For most clients you can simply download the file and import it directly, but for others you may need to copy-paste the RSS feeds in manually using the feed URLs for any feeds you want.
