I'm a programmer for some time now yet I haven't found the right websites which offer me the information I'm interested in. I've looked at TechCrunch, Slashdot, etc. but there wasn't so much actually about programming.

• When something urgently important happens in the programming world, where could I read it first?

• What are开发者_如何学Go some good sites/communities around programming?

Try:

• reddit - programming
• Hacker News - Although this is not strictly programming

There are a billion, i would first start with XKCD to start your day off right.

I would have reccomended Joel On Software, but he has moved on. There are still plenty of articles to read on that site.

Ever since Joel stopped writing I have turned to SlashDot as well as TechRepublic

I doubt that there's a CNN for all of "programming". Maybe the reason that you haven't found it is that it doesn't really exist or your expectations need calibration.

What are some good sites/communities around programming?

I would say you're posting at one of the best.

Well you're on a good one already, StackOverflow.

Have a look on InfoQ that's good.

I generally like http://www.reddit.com/r/programming and http://news.ycombinator.com/

Also, if you're interested in copyright and IP concerns in the programming world, http://www.arstechnica.com is generally good there.

Personally I always use:

http://channel9.msdn.com/

It is obviously geared towards developers using Microsoft Products but the plethora of different articles and videos is really useful.

---

I use DZone to keep up-to-date with the latest programming trends. It's similar to Reddit but has a better selection of links for my taste.

for news on coding, technology, design and stuff like that, i can recommend www.newtnetnews.com
