Speed accuracy news and people

I’m not a huge fan of some of the tech blogosphere. I think a lot of times there harsher then they should be, and off base with some of their reporting. I won’t name names but you probably know of who I speak. But a lot of time they’re really accurate. This is true for some more then others of course.

But, the timing of stories is incredible and as close to live as you’re going to get. I’ve gone from reading the trade press and find out what’s going on at a week by week level, to not reading the trade press at all. I read the papers the next day skimming through for new pieces of information because I’ve read the main message on the blogs the day before – as it happened.

So I’m making a trade off, preferring to find out what’s happening when it happens rather then getting the insights and super data checked accuracy that comes with newspapers. And that’s okay by me.
