About Google Blogoscoped

Google Blogoscoped covers Google and the tech world, more or less daily since 2003......Google Blogoscoped has become a true community effort over time through the participation of many, many people, including Tony Ruscoe (co-editor), Ionut Alex. Chitu, Colin Colehour, /pd, Mambo, Orli Yakuel, Manoj Nahar, Sohil, David Hetfield...

The blog and the forum cover new Google product releases, contain tutorials and tips, information on Google censorship methods, and 20% random weirdness (the blog also spawned a book). Google is the focus here because the company and its tools have a growing impact on people's life â�“ for better or worse.

This blog is featured in charts such as the Technorati Top 100, is a Google News source, and is also available in Chinese. Mark Draughn of Windypundit.com once called it "One of the most interesting technical sites on the web," and Vittorio Del Percio from Lugano, Switzerland, said it's "... the first source of info I check daily in the morning when I arrive at my desk in the office."
