I need some new sources to add to my daily addiction/routine... Everyone has a set a of websites they visit on the daily.

 

For me: (in no particular order)

 

geekzone.co.nz - Obvious
macrumors.com - Apple news and rumours
facebook.com - Mainly from iOS app
metvuw.co.nz - Weather forecast charts
aviationjobs.me - Aviation job postings

trademe.co.nz - (Once every couple days)

 

As you can see the list is pretty short!

 

I don't have a daily go-to news site anymore as I have lost all trust in online journalism these days. Maybe you have a creditable one you could suggest?

 

Then there are many other sites which are used in everyday life, which I have excluded; Google, Google Maps, Gmail/Email, Login required sites used for work, study, banking etc. I use these sites because I need to, not want to.

 

What are your daily go-to sites?

That is it really.

 

With Trade Me I have my favourite listings but don't go there unless looking for something specific.

There are very many that I would consider to be worthy, but in practice there tend to be only two or three on a daily basis, GZ of course, Radio NZ, and sometimes The Register. The mix varies from time to time, with GZ always on top by a big margin.
