To rely on one resource would be foolhardy. Using more than one means that you have a better chance of finding what you're looking for and a more complete view of research.

Science and physics journals. They are where all significant or interesting new research is documented in articles written by the researchers themselves. Access to these journals and databases that allow you to search online articles are usually at a cost. Large libraries, particularly university libraries, have very large hardcopy collections of journals of all fields. Ask a librarian for assistance in searching for articles or where to find the latest issue.

Ask your physical sciences librarian. Usually universities subscribe to journals for online access.

During my 2 years of research and assignment works..I found wikipedia as the best reference for what I am searching for..I mean..sometimes it's a little hard to search in Yahoo, or google the reference since they are based upon general facts...Good for u when u don't wanna go detail..just searched for it in Yahoo or Google..but if u wanna have some details, just go and find in Wikipedia..

http://www.wired.com/ - The popular "Wired" magazine, a good general take on technology. Not very specific however, articles are hit/miss a lot.\n\nhttp://slashdot.org/ - More towards the computer world, but still an excellent resource. The forums are also filled with useful opinions.\n\nhttp://www.newscientist.com/ - A great site/magazine for all the happenings in Science & Technology, with a very modern and applicable viewpoint.

If you download an article off a website, look for an author (avoid anonymous articles).  Then do a literature search of the author's name and see what other reputable research they have done.  \nIf you are using it as a reference for a research paper, stick to reputable sites.  Use caution with .com and .net sites.  .Org sites can also be deceptive.  I mostly use .edu and .gov sites.  I know the .gov sites will be good for stats and to help guide my research (but not completely support it).  .Edu sites are okay, as long as it has articles from a college professor, not a student.  \nIf you are reading an article, look for references.  If you don't have references, you don't know if they made the info up or if they obtained the info from another resource.
