How can you do your own research on a given subject? I'm not a scientist, just your average guy sitting in front of a screen, and lukeprog's posts makes me envy not having at least sixty points of reference I can base any opinion on.
Maybe "research" isn't the right word, but I don't know a word that fits better. What should I do and where should I look?
I personally save all important information into Evernote so that I can easily find information again.
When it comes to accessing information take a look at the http://lesswrong.com/lw/ji3/lesswrong_help_desk_free_paper_downloads_and_more/ thread.
Lukeprog also has that many references because he reads a lot. He practices his own advice of reading textbooks.

Thanks! (I wanted to upvote but I'm missing exactly 1 karma so mind giving some extra help?)
