Where to research for investments?

I got into investments by reading Benjamin Graham's books. I'm also a finance student. I read the FT and the journal. But, one think I struggle with is the amount of unlimited information. What is the best way to look for information online, to form my opinion of where I should invest. I was hoping for a good website with great investment analysis. 

What do you think of the Motley Fool? Or, should I research for investments another way?

Coming up with theses is very difficult, but there are some on here that are much more adept in that. What a lot of people do is invest in areas they understand or have a niche in already. If you're plugged into a particular scene, over time you'll know what to look for in companies. There are loads of websites where you can then find more information. Some are more related to the actual industry, but a lot of other places will have regular financial information (Yahoo/Google Finance, EDGAR, Morningstar, etc.). Check with your school if you have access to some via an educational license. My undergrad had some Bloomberg terminals that were useful too.

Alright, I get that. I did read that in a Peter Lynch book that you should pick what you buy most and analyse those companies. Maybe I'll do that. Are there any good investors worthy to follow out there?
