<p>What I like to suggest is that people read the New Yorker and the New York Times. You can probably get both at the public library, and you may be able to check out back issues of the New Yorker. Depending on where you live, your local paper may be a good thing to read as well. You should read a lot of different stuff, but look to read things that use English as it is currently used. In terms of online reading, you might try reading articles on Slate and Salon.</p>
