Yeah Digg is a very cool source for Gadget stories, we've got on the front page a few times and the traffic is phenomenal.

I might have to start a directory dedicated to gadget sites, Red Ferret did a post listing 101 gadget sites not that long back.

[kadhal]

I guess this is the one that you meant and it looks like it is the bible of gadget sites

101 Groovy Gadget Sites (http://www.redferret.net/gadgets/)

[Al]

Yeah that's the one, I only started CG a year ago but in those 12 months hundreds seem to of popped up.

[reapies]

I frequent most of the above mentioned and would like to add Ubergizmo (http://www.ubergizmo.com) and Uberphones (http://www.uberphones.com) to the list as they give no-holds-barred, independent reviews :)

Most of the gadget sites that popped up have become just money-making link-blogs. I wonder what's the next phase of evolution?

[humm]

I like coolest-gadgets n akiharabara news .. one of the my most visited sites. :)

You do see that with a fair few blogs, the ones I really hate are those that syndicate other peoples content and have no original content of their own. I'm all for blog owners making money (I sort of do) but that can't be the primary part of the site IMO.

I like coolest-gadgets n akiharabara news .. one of the my most visited sites. :)
Thanks Humm, great taste you have there :D

www.ehomeupgrade.com (http://www.ehomeupgrade.com) - all about home automation
www.trustedreviews.com (http://www.trustedreviews.com) - not necessarily first but they do have some reasonably in depth coverage

[keith]

Well, I don't particularly have a gadget site, but I can show you one where it reports one of the latest coolest gadgets release in Asia:

http://www.hardwarezone.com

www.ehomeupgrade.com (http://www.ehomeupgrade.com) - all about home automation
www.trustedreviews.com (http://www.trustedreviews.com) - not necessarily first but they do have some reasonably in depth coverage

I've always been a fan of Trusted Reviews myself.

[smrtdrmmr]

www.i4u.com
www.cnet.com

[TheBoneFletcher]

Gizmodo is definitely the best. Simple interface and very user-friendly.

[azn1art]

I look at a couple sites.

Gizmodo (http://www.gizmodo.com/)
Techeblog (http://www.techeblog.com/)
Cnet (http://www.cnet.com/)
Digg (http://www.digg.com/)
Engadget (http://www.engadget.com/)

[proxops-pete]

I'm more into computers... so...

Anandtech (http://anandtech.com)

And for deals on gadgets and PC/parts...

Slickdeals (http://slickdeals.net)

[clvezlys]

There is one that you haven't mentioned:
http://www.blavish.com/

[Johan]

PRweb could also be one to watch if you want to catch the latest before others do:

http://www.prweb.com/rss2/technology.xml
http://www.prweb.com/rss2/consumer.xml

Those can be narrowed down more specifically as well:

http://prweb.com/rss.php
