Over 16,000 data professionals were asked to indicate their favorite data science blogs, podcasts and newsletters.\u00a0 The top two favorite blogs were KDNuggets<\/a> and R Bloggers<\/a>. The top two podcasts were Becoming a Data Scientist<\/a> and The Data Skeptic<\/a>. The top two newsletters were O’Reilly Data<\/a> and Data Elixir<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n

Data professionals use a variety of platforms to learn data science skills. In an earlier analysis of different platforms and resources for learning data science, I found that around 29% of data professionals rely on blogs, 7% rely on podcasts and 7% rely on newsletters. In this post, we will identify data professionals’ favorite blogs, podcasts and newsletters. I used data from the\u00a0Kaggle 2017 State of Data Science and Machine Learning<\/a>\u00a0survey of over 16,000 data professionals (survey data collected in August 2017). This comprehensive survey asked\u00a0a variety of questions about data professionals’ preferences and work practices.<\/p>\n
