Here's my secret: be the spreader of current events to your coworkers. If you do this enough, they'll mimic you and do the same. Now you have an army of web-crawlers reporting back to you and all you need to do is process that information and decide what's important.

The only way I found out about a website I've come to use pretty much daily because it proved itself very useful to my job is though this method.
