"The key is to remember that staying informed should empower and enlighten, not overwhelm."

How?to stay informed, but not get overwhelmed?

One of the most important things for me is to set an objective about what kind of information is interesting and the most relevant for you. However, don’t overwhelm yourself by trying to read everything as soon as possible. Make a game plan: use apps like Feedly to aggregate your sources into one place and schedule a specific time of the day for reading them. Prioritize and filter these sources and be selective about the number of sources to ensure quality over quantity.

What?are your go-to sources?

I prefer video and written material. For SEO specialists, the impact of new Google algorithm updates or shifts in keyword positions could be understood through a written or video case study. On the other hand, podcasts can be a great way to hear from many industry experts and gather general information and updates about the industry.

Online newsletters are also a convenient way to keep up with important events, product launches, and updates.

"As someone involved in a startup accelerator, it's crucial for me to stay informed about not just startup trends but also broader developments in the VC and tech industries."

Tips & Tricks to filter reliable sources:

• Cross-reference information: look for the same news on multiple reputable platforms. If the story is only reported by one source, its credibility might be questionable.
• Understand the bias of every source: knowing what it is can help you understand the perspective they might be coming from.
• Check the date and context: sometimes, old news stories are shared as if they’re current.
• Quality over sensationalism: prefer news sources that focus on quality reporting over sensational or provocative content.
• Peer reviews and endorsements: in professional and academic circles, peer-reviewed articles and studies are more reliable. Also, endorsements by known experts can add to the credibility.
• Look for evidence: reliable news often includes verifiable evidence, not just claims. Check if the article links to reports, studies, or data.
