Tech Blogs

Download Squad:

If you read only one blog each day for news about software
and Web services, this one--a sibling of Engadget--would be a smart choice.

Scobleizer:

Robert Scoble was Microsoft's most prominent blogger, putting
a chubby, friendly face on the software giant, until he left a year ago.
He remains relentlessly upbeat and personal as he covers technology happenings.

Engadget and Gizmodo:

The Bobbsey Twins of the techie gadget universe.

If there's a cool new phone, PDA, game console, DVR, or other device brewing,
you'll hear about it first from these guys. We only wish we had their inside sources.

Slashdot:

The granddaddy of the tech news blogs, and the virtual water cooler of the geek cognoscenti.

To be "slashdotted"--that is, to be noticed by CmdrTaco, ScuttleMonkey,

or one of the other regulars--is in some circles the Net equivalent of above-the-fold placement

on the front page of the New York Times or the Wall Street Journal.

Ars Journals:

The blog arm of the venerable geek site Ars Technica offers an intriguing mix of news, opinion, and hands-on trials.

Chris Pirillo:

Lockergnome creator and former Tech TV host Chris Pirillo has to be one of the funniest guys in (or out) of technology.

Kottke.org:

Software developer Jason Kottke has been blogging about his diverse interests since 1998; nobody does more with fewer words.
