While engadget was the first candidate of our posting series which highlights some other blogs and forums that are related to our tech topics, Gizmodo has to be next! Both gadget weblogs are labeled by a long-standing feud...
Gizmodo is one of the most popular technology weblogs about consumer electronics. It is part of the Gawker Media network run by Nick Denton. The blog, launched in 2002, was originally edited by Peter Rojas, but he was recruited by Weblogs, Inc. to launch their similar technology blog Engadget. By mid-2004, Gizmodo and Gawker together were bringing in revenue of $6,000 per month.
In 2005, VNU and Gawker Media formed an alliance to republish Gizmodo across Europe, with VNU translating the content into French, German, Dutch, Spanish, and Italian, and add local European-interest material.
A Gizmodo blogger captured the first photos from the floor of CES 2007, and according to Reuters, journalists at the (simultaneous) Macworld debated whether Gizmodo or Engadget had the better live coverage of Steve Jobs's 2007 keynote. Apple Computer's Steve Jobs noted that Gizmodo was his favorite gadgets blog, further fueling a long-standing feud between Gizmodo and Engadget.
Hi, your blog seems to be really nice!! Are you interested in exchanging links? My blog is at http://changingtechnology.blogspot.com/ and it’s about the latest gadgets and the technology used. Do let me know if you are interested. I too will put up a link to your blog on mine. Thanks.
I dont like Gizmodo lately they have turned into Apple shills. It is so bad Gizmodo is even doing excuse articles for when Apple seriously drops the ball. This lack of journalistic integrity really puts me off, especially when they bag competing Apple technologies without a mention of the short comings of Apples products on the exact same page.
