Where to get Tech News
Thursday, January 10th, 2008 |There are many blogs, many tech news and even more tech review sites, but which are the best? Most of them simply duplicate the information from some sources but there are a few which ARE those sources.
There are two very famous blogs when it comes to the latest gadgets and tech news:
Both have a lot of the same information, but are mostly the first to let you know about anything and everything cool in tech. From reviewing the latest patents submitted, to reporting on spy pictures of gadgets and tech no-one has ever seen yet, to letting you know what’s the best gizmo to get.
Right now, the big event in Computer industry is the CES show in Las Vegas. Engadget and Gizmodo have been submitting videos, reviews, and news since the very second it started. I’ve read over 500 articles in the past few days just about things from the show itself.
Also, whenever there is a major event like CES, or MacWorld (coming up shortly; in 5 days on January 15th), you may rest assured that these two blogs will have minute-by-minute LIVE coverage of the event in pictures and words updated every couple of minutes. With them, I always feel like I am on the show floor myself.
