This question actually has me thinking about how I stay up on the latest trends: Bloomberg.
The markets are either on time or late to the party but they are indeed reacting to the trends.
I do want to get more involved with conversations on Twitter and local meetups.
Share
Well, Twitter and Ycombinator are great places for that.
@abod_rehman
I use a separate YouTube account just for tech videos. I watch AI and DevOps content there, and if I come across something unrelated, I mark it as 'not interested.' This way, I get more tech videos and stay updated on the latest trends. You don't have to search for interesting content; YouTube will suggest it if something new and exciting is happening.
buzzabout
- YouTube podcasts while commuting to the office (subscribed to certain tech bloggers)
- email newsletters (Bens bites) for example
- telegram groups
- people
- social media (LinkedIn, Twitter)
- YC social media
- hacker news
So basically I live in that environment, and it's almost impossible for me to miss some decent tech trend, as it would come over one way or another.
And of course PH to see what people are building and where industry is watching.
I use:
- TechCrunch
- Linkedin
- Meetups and groups such as ProductTank

Hi @abod_rehman , I'm read news, and Google Trends. For AI: I'm view the huggingface webpage, such model, space, posts...

The fastest way for me is reading tweets from Tech influencers on X.
Going through all the news is not an option. It takes a lot of time and not always relevant information comes across. A cool life hack is to sign up for newsletters from those companies. There are paid ones, and there are free ones, such as the newsletter from JetSoftPro, for example.

By attending tech conferences and meetups.

Like TechCrunch
I dive into the digital currents of Reddit's tech communities, swim through the waves of TechCrunch, and occasionally ride the tweets of tech influencers. It's like surfing; I catch the big waves of innovation before they hit the mainstream shore! 😄
Google News Feed
linkedin, google
I mainly rely on Twitter to stay updated. I have lists following tech journalists, VCs, startup founders, and thought leaders in areas I'm interested in like AI, crypto, cloud, etc. Everyday I scroll through my feed to see the latest developments, product launches, funding rounds and such. Would love to know what other channels people find most useful for staying on top of tech trends!
