Do you ever get the feeling that every tech blog is just regurgitating the same press release? These days, it’s hard to find a post that hasn’t been written 6,000 times on every other blog. Writers should give their readers more credit and know that they read more than 1 site.

Just a thought.

    Its a good point but not really anything novel. If you think about it that is true about all news everywhere. Just listen to the news on the way home. Or watch TV where even the same TV news channel repeats itself every 20 minutes. Or every newspaper covers the same story or uses the same AP news source…

    That is just funny, but to be honest I would rather people repeat true news then have Blog sites make stuff up and talk out of their butts :)

    Seriously though some people try so hard to be original and exclusive that people will just not listen to them any more because they make stuff up or turn ant hills into mountains, this is what happened with me and a few blog sites with BGR being one of them. If someone sites BGR as their source I always make sure someone else can confirm first before believing. 

    It’s why I love BBCool
