The art of knowing everything you want to know (and more) on the internet.

Nowadays it seems so important to be up-to-date with EVERYTHING.

From a GoPro video about The Adventure of Life in 4K to 13 ways designers screw up client presentations, we all seem to need to understand and know it all.

But how are you supposed to stay up-to-date then?

Here are a few tips:

In the end it’s all about being subscribed to the right websites, newsletters, Facebook pages and other handy plug-ins. Firstly, Twitter is faster than any news channel around the world, but many people find it hard to get the right information out of it.

The Latest is the perfect solution, by getting an automatic list of the latest and greatest link from Twitter.

If you always long to know what is really happening in the world, be sure to subscribe to the newsletter of Vocativ. It’s a company that focusses on the use of intelligent technology, smart journalists and the wisdom of the crowd to find story leads and angles no other news organisation can.

And then there is the phenomenon of the viral video.

How amazing would it be if there was a website with the best viral videos playing in a non-stop playlist? If you were already drooling on your keyboard by the idea of such a magnificent thing, 9gag.tv is the website to go to!

Are you that type of person who wants to expand your music taste every other second? Check the latest releases and opinions on Pitchfork, which also works brilliantly with Spotify.

Another way to find out about all those precious gems on the internet is Today in Tabs — your daily digest of the best (and occasionally worst) in tabs.

But what if you get sick of all those newsletters landing in your mailbox, making you feel extremely stressed?!

Don’t worry; there is always a solution for everything on the internet. Need help cleaning out subscriptions without needing to unsubscribe one by one? Use Unroll.me. And if you are looking for the best possible mail client to clean up, you should definitely consider Mailbox.

The possibilities are endless, isn’t it mind blowing?
