The top 10 tech journalists in the world

(1/1)

Sharifur Rahman:
Seth Weintraub

When it comes to breaking Mac secrets, it's a tough job. Somehow, though, Seth and his team manages to do it over and over again, day-in day-out. His Twitter bio says it all: "Technology addict, 9to5Mac Founder, Fortune Google columnist, USC Football fan, VFR Pilot and Proud Father".

Tom Warren

Trying to out scoop Microsoft hacks when you aren’t based in Seattle has got to be a tough gig. However, Tom Warren, previously with neowin.net, doesn’t see something like distance (he is based in London) get in the way as he consistently breaks stories coming out of Redmond ahead of the west coast. This is one connected reporter when it comes to the Microsoft beat.

Stuart Dredge

Stuart is probably one of the best kept secrets outside of his core beat of phones, apps, mobile gaming and music services, yet he dominates the scene with consistent scoops and features. His beat might be narrow, but those who read him are always influenced.

Nilay Patel

Engadget is teeming with talent, but there is only one man on the team that can take a lawsuit story, break it down and give you a chance of understanding all within a handful of paragraphs. Combine that with a passion for “quality journalism”, the massive audience and presence Engadget has, and you can see why Nilay is on the list.

Eric M. Zeman

When it comes to the US phone market, Eric is your man. Covering the beat for both news and reviews, his writing has the ability to make or break a product. Phonescoop.com might not be one of the biggest mobile phone sites out there, but Eric has a strong grasp on the industry, those who work in it, and always knows exactly what’s going on, even if he can’t officially tell anyone.

Zach Epstein

Boy Genius Report is consistently getting exclusives and influencing smaller sites' agendas. Zach Epstein, alongside Andrew Munchbach and founder Jonathan Geller, uses that influence to break stories on a regular basis on everything from which smartphone is launching where to the latest mobile industry news.

Dan Frommer

Dan’s bio on Silicon alley reads: "Dan Frommer is senior staff writer at Business Insider. He writes about Apple and other big players in the technology industry, with a special focus on mobile tech". What it doesn’t say is that he is normally the only one in the room asking the questions around the edge of a story. That means amazing insights, great quotes and plenty of stories that change the way we think about the big announcements from the industry.

Ben Parr

Co-editor of Mashable since 2009, Ben has the power to influence a lot of other influencers in his role at Mashable. Whether it’s covering Google or Facebook, he is in on the social networking scene knowing how and why it ticks.

Rory Cellan

A self-confessed non-geek, Rory is the BBC technology correspondent tasked with bringing the big stories of the day to the Beeb’s mass-market audience. That means radio, TV and insightful blogs that have the power to not only educate, but also bring down companies.

Dr Aleks Krotoski

Having informed the world of the digital revolution, Aleks regularly uses the Guardian blogs to bring her incredibly insightful views and opinions to the biggest stories of the day. This is breaking-down tech at it’s finest.
