3. Khan Academy - Great for learning the basics of computer science and programming.
4. Codecademy - Interactive platform for learning coding skills.
5. freeCodeCamp - Free coding lessons and projects to build real-world skills.
6. TechCrunch- Stay updated on tech news and trends.
7. YouTube Channels - Such as Traversy Media or The Net Ninja for practical tutorials.
8. LinkedIn Learning - Professional courses on various tech topics.
9. Reddit - Subreddits like r/learnprogramming and r/technology for community support and advice.

"tech" is really broad to give any real depth. It would really differ depending on the role you want to enter - are you a product marketer, growth marketer, sales rep or product manager ?

Thanks for sharing, Udaya. Iām a programmer myself, so the list looks familiar to me. I definitely recommend Andrew Ngās AI or Deep Learning courses on Coursera.
