Yahoo! Tech

At the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas this week, Yahoo! announced their new technology portal.  The mainstream media has often struggled to decide which genre to publish any tech news, so it’s good to see Yahoo giving tech its own genre.  

The other annoying thing mainstream media usually do is try to maximise clicks with “click here to continue reading” in the middle of articles, which gives them extra page views and revenue.  Yahoo! Tech is different, it’s a single flowing page – sure you click the headline to expand the article but then you just scroll down to read and keep scrolling, with more headlines appearing underneath.

The site was add free for the first few days, but today I've noticed some sponsored headlines appearing.  They’re not intrusive at all, if you’re not interested just keep on scrolling.
