How do you find RSS feeds that you're interested in?

I'd like to take my RSS feeds from an aggregator of news to a curated selection of interesting things. Interesting newsletters and blogs are where I think RSS shines, but I struggle to find this content.

What do you do to find these kinds of RSS feeds?

  • I generally go to a website and if I like the content, I look for an RSS icon. If I can't find one, I'll browse to either [domain]/rss, [domain]/rss.xml, [domain]/feed or [domain]/feed.xml, because most websites that support RSS will have an XML file at that location. This has worked for every site I've tried it on so far, except for Genius' website.

  • This is how I manage it:

    • Usually I add feeds of blogs I find out from other aggregators (people posting links, HackerNews, Lobsters, Kotke.org, etc).
    • This website categorizes blogs, I found some really good gems there, so I follow their feed.
    • My RSS reader of choice (Inoreader) can show trending topics from feeds I am not following.
