        Site of the Day for Tuesday, April 26, 2011

        TechCrunch

Today's site began as a blog launched in 2005 by Silicon Valley insider Michael
Arrington. With its staff of more than 40, a focus and enviable reputation for
breaking news in the high tech industry, Gentle Subscribers will discover a 
widely
followed and influential publication, in a style more reminiscent of steamy
tabloids than of the typical detached analysis of the industry.

"TechCrunch is a leading technology media property, dedicated to obsessively
profiling start-ups, reviewing new Internet products, and breaking tech news. 
...
TechCrunch's database about start-up companies, people and investors, has become
the leading statistical resource for technology companies and transactions." - 
from
the website

Obsessively up to date, with stories filed by the hour, TechCrunch covers a 
number
of specific areas such as What's Hot: Android; Apple, Google and Microsoft, 
along
with Facebook and Twitter. A moving storyboard highlights the latest reports, 
while
the inside track on start-up ventures features the current buzz. Recent articles
noted the first lawsuit filed against Apple over the undocumented location 
tracking
database uproar and the possible trend of smartphone users towards the Android 
OS.
Additional sections zero in on Gadgets, Mobile, Enterprise and GreenTech while 
the
TechCrunch Trends offers more soberly presented data on significant funding,
acquisitions and investment within the industry.
