I've been a long term fan of RSS feeds. It's ideal when following tech news. In the past I used to read my feeds on a computer - using a mail client - but nowadays I prefer my iPad.
The following screenshot from Google Reader shows my addiction over the past year.
Hmmm a little over 7 tech articles/blogs a day, that sounds about right. Although... this doesn't include my reads on Hacker News. Perhaps it's more serious than I thought ;)
