Mashable<\/span><\/span><\/h2>\n

Mashable<\/a> isn\u2019t just a tech blog; the site is broken up into sections related to science, entertainment, and even politics, but it deserves a mention here as it keeps all things digital at the forefront. It was initially launched in 2005 as a basic WordPress blog, with founder Pete Cashmore as its sole contributor, but quickly gained popularity. It\u2019s now supported by its own technology and is one of the largest and most regularly-updated digital news blogs, boasting 28 million social media followers.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

ReadWrite<\/span><\/span><\/h2>\n

While other blogs on this site mostly look at user interface level, ReadWrite<\/a> gazes deeper into the supporting technology and software developments. It has articles on the Internet of Things, Blockchain, Fintech, and more. Basically, if it\u2019s something Elon Musk would take an interest in, it\u2019s most likely written about here. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Techmeme<\/span><\/span><\/h2>\n

Techmeme<\/a> is an independent news aggregator that updates in almost real-time with the latest in technology news.

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The Verge<\/span><\/span><\/h2>\n

This extremely sleek and shiny website houses blogs on technology, science, and the culture surrounding them. Several new articles are uploaded to The Verge<\/a> daily, but the front page is less cluttered than those of some of the other sites on this list, making it easier to sift through them. It\u2019s also more mobile-friendly than some of the others due to slightly fewer ads and a cleaner layout, making this one of the best to browse on the go. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

VentureBeat<\/span><\/span><\/h2>\n

VentureBeat<\/a> articles and events are aimed at developers, business owners, and true technology enthusiasts.

It provides research and guidance for start-ups, established businesses, and fellow blog writers. The subjects written about include transport, gaming, development, and marketing, so many IT professionals will find something useful here.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Technology Review<\/span><\/span><\/h2>\n

Of course, the writers at the MIT Technology Review know their stuff, but they write for both experts and laymen alike. Technology Review<\/a> is run by a large team of professionals and specialists with a shared wealth of technical knowledge, which they aim to make accessible through their articles. Not only is the information available online, they also run live events, so bookmarking this blog is worthwhile if you\u2019re ever interested in attending.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Final Thoughts<\/span><\/h2>\n

We\u2019ve chosen these blogs as they\u2019re some of the biggest and have access to the latest stories and good-sizes teams to update their readers regularly.
