Top 5 Data Science News Websites – Recommended Daily Visit

Following are top 5 websites which publishes news related with Data Science on daily basis (mostly). These could be seen as must visit websites/webpages for data science and you may want to bookmark to remain up-to-date with what’s happening in the area of data science.

1. KDNuggets.com: My favorite website in relation with catching latest and greatest on data science. You get information related to all of the following at one place:
   • General news
   • Academic news related to upcoming data science courses, program in various universities across the globe
   • Jobs
   • Courses
   • Free datasets for one to download and practice
   • News on meeting, conferences

   If you want to go to a couple of websites daily and catchup on data science news, KDNuggets.com has to be one of them.

2. Data Science/Machine Learning Sub-reddits: Following two sub-reddits are my regular visits and I make sure I have a look at them on daily basis.
   • http://reddit.com/r/machinelearning provides links to articles on machine learning
   • http://reddit.com/r/datascience provides links to articles on data science

   These sub-reddits provide links to various webpages from different websites that includes informative articles as well as news. In addition, you have the flexibility of posting your queries in relation with machine learning and data science topics and hear back multiple answers from the sub-reddits visitors. I would recommend it as MUST-BOOKMARK. I rather access these sub-reddits from my mobile phone using Reddit app. So, if you have not downloaded the reddit app until now, please go ahead and do the same and get started.

3. Google Alerts: Setting google alerts for keywords such as “machine learning” and “data science” could help you catchup on data science and machine learning news on daily basis. All you have to do is go to https://www.google.com/alerts and create alerts with those keywords mentioned above. Although they send only 10 alerts in your mail box, you could check out further pages by following the link, “See more results” that could be found within the alert mail. This is one of my regular must-check email in Gmail inbox.
4. DataScience Central: Articles on DataScience Central can mostly be categorized as blog posts than the news. However, you do find news items as well. In their words, Data Science Central is the industry’s online resource for big data practitioners. From Analytics to Data Integration to Visualization, Data Science Central provides a community experience that includes a robust editorial platform, social interaction, forum-based technical support, the latest in technology, tools and trends and industry job opportunities.

5. DataTau.com: DataTau.com is a social bookmarking site on data science topics, news etc. Although this looks very much like aggregation of data science links from various sources, I do visit the websites frequently to make sure that I have n’t missed on any interesting news/articles.
