Most of us only have time to read essential publications that cover our respective industry. But for all the information junkies out there, these five technology blogs don't cover anything related to the legal profession, but you'll probably like them a lot all the same. I certainly do.
Techmeme: Bill Gates probably reads Techmeme. Part search engine, part blog, Techmeme uses an algorithm to list the most important technology articles, and updates the list constantly throughout the day.
Infectious Greed: Greed, for lack of a better word, is good. Maybe Gordon Gekko was right all along. In this blog, Paul Kedrosky provides some of the sharpest insight on the media and technology sectors (primarily public companies).
TechCrunch & GigaOm: A two for one since both of these blogs cover the same beat — technology startups. TechCrunch excels at breaking news and product reviews, whereas GigaOm excels at analysis. In other words, they go together like peanut butter and chocolate (sorry, I don't like jelly).
Don Dodge on the Next Big Thing: Picture this: A middle manager at Microsoft starts a blog and becomes more popular and highly-regarded than many in Microsoft's senior ranks. That's what happened to Robert Scoble. Expect history to repeat itself with Don Dodge.
ValleyWag: Though it has lost some its edge (outlandishness?), ValleyWag remains the best source for Silicon Valley gossip. For example, did you know that Google co-founder Sergey Brin tied the knot last week? The wedding invitation simply told guests to show up for a ride in the Google jet (which eventually landed in the Bahamas).
