How are you getting your daily dose of news? I don't mean sports and weather news. I mean the news that impacts your job search, career, industry?
One of my favorite weekly sources of news is a magazine called "The Week". It arrives on Fridays and I can't wait to read it cover to cover. It is well written and covers both sides of the story.
If you want another weekly digest sent to your inbox, try Smartbrief. It covers the key stories within industries. Free! Here's what the homepage looks like, the email digest looks a bit different, but you get the drift.
If you are looking for a collection of blogs to read about a particular topic, my friend, Mike Lally recommended Alltop in a recent comment. I agree. Great collection of some of the best blogs on a topic. You can even build your own page to read with all the information in one spot based on your interests.
Become an information sponge. Learn as much as you can about current events and new trends. It makes it so much easier to have great discussions with people while networking.
Read and learn!
what do you do with your old copies of the week? :) I would LOVE them. I miss the books/movies/etc sections. The non-news stuff. :)
