Other great reads
I break my other communicators that I read into categories:
- cappuccino: those I read first thing with my morning coffee
- darjeeling breakfast: those I get to at least twice a week
- english breakfast: at least once a fortnight
- green tea: well, once a month if I’m lucky…
So here’s a list of other commentators and communicators that I have found invaluable in my continuing quest for ways to communicate better, think better, live better.

- and all the other feeds that crop up and disappear off my radar
Now, you might well ask how I manage to read all these different websites in a day/week/month, especially as some of them are updating their news every minute (like the BBC, for example).
Simple — I use a ‘feed reader’ to subscribe to the RSS feed of all the above websites, then that feed reader (in my case, I use the fantastic and free ‘GreatNews‘) goes out and grabs the latest stories for me. All I need to do is sit back and read them, offline on the bus on the way to or from work if I want to…
Why don’t you download ‘GreatNews‘ for yourself and see how easy it is to keep up with what’s happening in the world you live in.

Might I suggest a wee nip of scotch or a cool Boags when reading mine, Lee? Best Gerry
