Hacker News Reader

I've been using Google Reader since it was first available.

I don't know how or why, but over the past 6 months I've actually converted from Google Reader to a combination of HN+Twitter.

I think the content is just more relevant and curated this way.

View on HN

That's exactly my current way to stay up to date on news, and it's using much less time per day for me than Google Reader.

how do you avoid redundancy, meaning seeing the same news items on both HN and Twitter?

I rarely read the same thing since so much (curated) info is provided. If I do, the title usually gives it away. And regardless, if it's breaking news, it is usually on every news source. That's a problem you can't avoid. I always had multiple news sources reporting the same thing in Google Reader, and I still face it.
