Hacker News Reader

Then you are missing out and are letting the masses decide what you read. Technical experts have highly targeted RSS feeds and thus highly relevant information. Once you give up on that you've really just given up.

View on HN

You are certainly right, I'm not a technical experts, and the average contain of HN is usually enough for me. If I would need some too specific stuff, it wouldn't work.

Sounds like a good balance is best. RSS for specific, infrequent blogs and twitter for the mass news. This is where I have found myself lately. I have dropped all feeds that post more than 3 or 4 times a day other than HN. If I could get a more refined feed from HN (just stuff that makes it to the front page), I would be even happier.

There is possibly a way, this twitter account provide only HN stories higher than 100 points, Twitter also allow to follow via RSS feed, unless they it turned off, https://twitter.com/#!/newsyc100 So it would provide readable feed for HN.

awesome. i didn't know about that twitter account. thanks.

Harnessing thousands of wetware processors executing trained expert systems, for a news filter? Not giving up, to use Hacker News.
