I've recently started using RSS feeds. Does anyone have LW-related feeds they'd recommend? Or for that matter, anything they'd recommend following which doesn't have an RSS feed?

Here's my short list so far, in case anyone else is interested:

  • Less Wrong Discussion

  • Less Wrong Main (ie promoted)

  • Slate Star Codex

  • Center for the Study of Existential Risk

  • Future of Life Institute [they have a RSS button, but it appears to be broken. They just updated their webpage, so I'll subscribe once there's something to subscribe to.]

  • Global Priorities Project

  • 80,000 Hours

  • SpaceX [an aerospace company, which Elon Musk refuses to take public until they've started a Mars colony]

These obviously have an xrisk focus, but feel free to share anything you think any Less-Wrongers might be interested in, even if it doesn't sound like I would be.

For anyone looking to start using RSS, I'd recommend using the Bamboo Feed Reader extension in FireFox, and deleting all the default feeds. I started out using Sage as a feed aggregator, but didn't like the sidebar style or the tiled reader.

You may like some of the sources mentioned in "List of Blogs" on LW wiki.

I used to use Thunderbird Portable, but my flash drive died and I lost thousands of saved articles.

After Google Reader was discontinued, I switched to Feedly. This is my OPML. Note that I've included several Colombian media sources because that's where I live.
