Business and Tech Blogs

[jasonvonstieglitz]

Hi Everyone,

I was wondering what suggestions you have for business / technology blogs, from both here in Australia and from abroad. I already follow the more obvious tech news sites like ZDNet Australia, Technology Spectator, TechCrunch, Mashable, etc. I am more interested in blogs that tend more towards the opinion / commentary types of content, rather than news sites. I'm sure there are some good ones out there...

Thanks!

what about nett magazine? http://nett.com.au/

i saw it recently and it looked alright. not my sort of thing but it may be what u are looking for.

Thanks for that Jake - looks like it might be what I am after...

After a bit more looking I have since found Technorati which will keep me busy for a while now...

Cheers

I initally thought I might have found something for you:

http://www.techcrunchers.com/

Classes itself as the Australia Technical and Technology Blog. The two most recent blog additions? "Marriage & Relationship Counselling" and "Am I Dating a Narcissist?" !!!!!

I'm guessing the latter post indicates that it started out as a tech blog but the webmaster just couldn't help focusing on his own issues!

Sorry I couldn't be of anymore help.

Not entirely sure if this is up your street, Jason, but it does manage to mix some global gathered tech news with humour. I tend to use the site for a bit of light-hearted reading instead of relying on it as a source of information but they do pop some great stuff on there occasionally.

Hi

Not sure if this is helpful but you could try wired.com gizmodo.com.au or engadget.com

Thanks guys - a couple I have seen before, but a few new ones to check out as well. So much content out there, its a full-on job just tracking through it all to find the good stuff.

Appreciate the responses.

Cheers

The King says you can get overloaded with information and it can just serve to confuse. Nothing wrong with reading a couple of them but after a while there is a sameness to them all.

An entire directory of them here from people that actually use them.

Thanks Dunworking - this is exactly what I am looking for. Quite few on there that I know about, but some of the categories are right in the niche of blogs that I am interested in.

Much appreciated.

My absolute pleasure, Jason. I've taken a look through several of the sites as well. One or two are incredibly amusing and I lost a couple of hours of my life yesterday reading through them. Well worth the effort though!

Some of these are very very interesting. I'm not a big fan of the whole blogosphere, but they do produce a few interesting tidbits every once in a while.
