Resources to Stay Up-to-Date For Developers

As a software developer and tech geek in general, it is important that I stay on top of current trends. Constant learning is just part of the norm for the tech industry. But how does one go about trying to stay on top of things? Everyone should have a go-to list of resources that provide the information needed to stay on top of their game. I thought I would list some of my go-to resources.

A handpicked list of resources I find useful in no particular order.

Daily Resources

The Morning Dew - created and maintained by Alvin Ashcraft, this blog is one of my first choices when it comes to staying up-to-date. The blog is a valuable resource for web, windows, and .NET developers.
The Morning Brew - created and maintained by Chris Alcock. The blog is updated daily. This blog is geared towards .NET software development.
Daily.dev - an online community for developers to stay up-to-date on the latest and greatest developer news. The content of the site can be personalized to a person's specific interests.
.NET Ketchup - a daily collection of posts, tweets, and articles from a variety of sources relating to .NET development.
Same Stuff, Different Day - created and maintained by Michael Eaton. This blog is updated daily with a variety of different content involving Technology, Leadership, Project Mgmt, GitHub Repos, and more. It is not just for developers.

Other Resources

Medium.com - an online community with articles and posts from a variety of creators. One unique thing about Medium.com is it is a site for everyone, not just developers and technology professionals/enthusiasts.
Twitter - If you don't know what Twitter is, you've been living under a rock
Flipboard - an online smart magazine that makes it easy to stay informed about all topics that interest you the most. Topics include health and fitness, mobile, entertainment, and so much more. This site has an excellent selection of technology and software development magazines/sources.
C# Digest - a weekly digest of articles related to .NET development.

A small list of other generic sites for technology news include:

One last site I would like to recognize is Udemy Freebies. This site provides a list of Udemy videos that are free for a limited time. The site is updated daily and contains videos for a variety of subjects including developer/technology topics.

On a final note, I would be interested in learning about other people's go-to resources for staying up-to-date with software development and technology, in general. If you have a site, please comment on this article.
