I get all my scrappy news from here, but I was wondering where everyone else gets all the latest and greatest news about new product releases, and what's trending in the scrappy world.

I've watched YouTube more in the past year (which is still not very often) and found some on there, although for what I watch, it tends to be more current technique trends. I also receive emails from a few online store so I see new products that way (Eileen Hutson and Scrapbook.com) which is enough to see new products. Then around CHA time (or whatever it is now) I go to ScrapbookUpdate.com regularly. Nancy Nally shares info year-round and seems to be a good source for what's happening. That's the little I do and I tend to be the person with the up-to-date news for my crafty groups. I don't think any of them care much!

Here because the Peas always know the latest and greatest and I trust their opinions. We're even better than Consumer Reports!

right here mostly - a little on FB
I'm not a Youtube person - my computer doesn't have sound (well...it did but it doesn't anymore and it's not important enough to me to pay to have someone figure it out)

Here for sure.
I don't really do IG, which is where the manufacturers and designers seem to want us to go, but I dislike that interface.

For the latest and best news the fastest I have become dependent on nicolep! Other than here, I get the quarterly magazines Scrapbook & Cards Today, and Creative Scrapbooking. Also check out their blogs periodically for what new techniques are out there. (Or what old techniques are new again). In addition, I follow the blogs of manufacturers I like. Also get email alerts from a couple of stores. CHA season, I stalk ScrapbookUpdate.com.

I have to agree with everyone else. 2Peas Refugees is the best place to find honest product reviews, notice for hot new products, and quick help with silhouette & cricut questions. (And I'm mostly a lurker. Since I'm usually at work when reading I don't want to always be logged into my account.) I do follow several blogs using Feedly so everything is in one spot. But the blogs are mostly for inspiration.

Here more than I used to.
Every time there is a giveaway that says follow xyz company, I do. I follow over 200 pages on Facebook (but I sort them into their own section...for a while FB did away with this and I had to refollow them in my main feed and never saw anything from people who actually matter...I'm so glad they went back to the way it used to be) so I get a lot of news that way. I've unfollowed several as I've either been offended or bored by their posts, but usually once I follow a company I don't unfollow. I don't visit that page as much as I used to, though, because I've become hooked to Instagram. I joined ONLY because it got a bonus entry into a giveaway for a sketch challenge that I entered frequently at the time and now it's my main source of scrappy knowledge. I need to follow more companies on there...I follow most of my favorites, but there are still a few gaps I could fill.

100% here! I have a lot of layout ideas on my Pinterest newsfeed and I do follow some scrappers on Instagram but that doesnt tell me the news, latest and greatest, etc. I really love that this board has come more alive lately!

Pretty much, I get my news here. I used to read Scrapbook Update pretty regularly, but I got out of the habit. I also listened to the Paperclipping roundtable, but that wasn't exactly SB product info, just scrapping talk.
I've started watching some youtube videos, too.

I, too, love to follow several companies, but often my main feed gets so overwhelming, that I just give up. TIA Save

I, too, love to follow several companies, but often my main feed gets so overwhelming, that I just give up. TIA SaveThere is an option called friend pages...and from there you should be able to create one (I did it before the update changed to this, so I am not sure where to click). They suggest groupings like family members and coworkers, but I created one for craft pages. There is an option in the settings that allow you to choose things you like versus your fb friends...and also a box that says 'add name) and you can type specific names of pages to add them. Then unfollow from your main page. For a while, if you didn't follow them in your main feed, they wouldn't show up in your created grouping, so if that happens in the future after an update, they probably did it again. Nothing on FB seems to be permanent!

Only here. I'm not really that big into scrapbooking news, so I don't go looking for it anywhere else.

I get a lot of scrapbook news from ig. I follow a lot of manufacturers, product designers & i guess people still somewhat active in the industry on there. So many people i use to love don't even scrapbook anymore, or they are only into planning, which is cool too.
I've always been here for news too.
I miss the old pea board so much for the latest & its been hard to find that level of info as time goes on.

Most of it from you ladies here, from a few IG folks, and I listen to the Scrap Gals podcast and belong to a few scrappy FB groups. Thanks to some enabling conversations here, I am awaiting my April GB kit, and am pining away for some Oxide Distress inks!!!
