I read with great interest Geoffrey Grosenbach's recent article on how he gets his Rails news
I too ditched my feed reader some time ago in favor of aggregation/news sites such as Ruby Inside and PlanetRubyOnRails. They help get me my daily dosage of what is going on in the Rails World.
I now have a third additional source. It has become such a handy resource I have put it live on the Working With Rails site. The WWR BlogSphere.
It basically gives you an aggregate view of Rails blog posts with a bias using metrics collected at WWR. So you can view the latest posts by the most authoritative or popular people. Or if you want to keep up with what is happening in the Rails source code you can follow by contributors. Even nicer if you have made recommendations you view only posts by these people - handy to make sure you are up to date with their latest developments.
I have plenty of ideas for enhancing the functionality and interface. I also welcome any suggestions or ideas. If you get a moment please do drop me some feedback - it's all much appreciated.
