Back to basics, sit in the background for a bit, easy to get sucked into useless threads
When I'm researching or looking for opinions on something, I sub to a bunch of threads/sites on the subject and just do some background reading. No particular sites, I just Google the subject matter and follow any links that look alright. Tons of info, just have to sort through the crap and refine your searches, there is crap out there! I'm a data/facts guy, I'll read papers/studies before threads or magazine articles if available.
