That is why it can be quite difficult to know all there is about the technology changes. The article below, however, will reveal ways on how to keep up with the constantly growing tech world.
Joining forums that are fully focused on one category is a great way to keep up with technology. Here, your opinions, questions and doubts can be expressed.

Try joining global forums for better results, as probably more people with be registered, therefore you will have a bigger flow of news rotating in the forum.
Step 2: Follow People on Twitter

Step 3: Subscribe to Newsletters
Find your favorite technology-focused websites that inspire you and subscribe to their newsletter. This way you will get updates on the latest news posted on the website right to your inbox.

This is the only way I know how.
Step 4: Make Your Own Research
Have a question? You know where to search. Make Google (or any other search engine) your guide to technology news. Avoid purchasing books on technology as they may be outdated. A few month-old book will not tell you about the last week's releases, where as a search engine will focus to bring you the freshest news. Search for your favorite categories, get answers and find reviews online.
