Welcome to Techgage, a leading independent technology news site for IT professionals, PC enthusiasts, and 'gear freaks' of all stripes. Techgage is dedicated to keeping our visitors ever apprised of the latest in cutting-edge PC hardware, software, and consumer electronics.
Updated daily, Techgage is committed to delivering fresh, informative, and enjoyable technology content that consists of news, product reviews, topical articles, and industry coverage and analysis. Our staff members are technology experts, carefully chosen for their knowledge and committed to integrity and factual accuracy while providing a heaping helping of insight and opinion as well. We hold ourselves to high standards of quality in every regard, from detailed comparison testing to in-depth product analysis.
Techgage is an advocate of the consumer first. We won't ever modify an article because of external pressure by a PR firm - we stand behind our testing methods and conclusions. We fully recognize our two-fold role in the tech industry as an independent tech journal, to keep our visitors up-to-date on the latest products and technologies and to protect the public from shady or dishonest practices when necessary.
Techgage is a distributed enterprise. Our staff comes from many locations throughout North America, and diverse backgrounds ranging from audio engineering to photography. We all share one thing in common, however - a passion for technology, and a dedication to providing the highest quality coverage of every aspect of the PC technology and consumer electronics industries that is relevant to the consumer. From the latest gadgets and gear to in-depth testing of the newest enthusiast hardware, Techgage has something for every enthusiast.

A web site like Techgage brings together a variety of materials, sources, and opinions. Part of the challenge of making it all work is keeping track of who owns what, and not running afoul of copyright and intellectual property holders. The Terms & Conditions page is often overlooked, but it affects you if you want to refer to our content, or if you think you'd someday want to sue us for some reason. We love getting credit for our work in the wider web world (lawsuits, not so much), so be sure you read and understand our terms and conditions so we can coexist peacefully together. The language may look a little austere or intimidating, but if you want to use a part of our content in a way that requires our written permission, just ask us - we're really the nicest people you'll ever meet, and 'written permission' is usually just an email away.
The hugeness of the online privacy issue is hardly news anymore - it's important to know how your data is treated by anyone who collects it. The information we collect for our online forums is never distributed to spammers, junk mailers, or telemarketers... or anyone else at all, for that matter. However, like so many others, our web site is supported through advertising revenue. Some of our advertisers use browser 'cookies' to store information on what ads you've clicked, what ads you've seen, and whatnot. Be sure to peruse the privacy policies of our advertising providers as well.
You think you can do what we do? Here's your invitation! We're planning some serious growth in the near future, but we need people that can help make it happen.
All positions for Techgage are voluntary, but can be rewarding. In addition to being a great way to get your fix of the 'shiny-shiny', you get to build your reputation as a knowledgeable authority in the world of PC technology, and you get a cool Techgage.com email address. You'll also join a spirited team of dynamic individuals who care deeply about providing our visitors with the best experience possible.
To be the best candidate for a position at Techgage, we suggest that you:
Applicants must submit a writing sample of no less than 1200 words (we can help with this if necessary), or an example of previous work at a similar site. We'd also like to know what area of PC technology you're most interested in. To apply, send an email to Rob (rob.williams@) for consideration.
