CNET (www.cnet.com), where people go to discover the latest in tech
and consumer electronics, and a property of CNET Networks, Inc.
(Nasdaq: CNET), today announced the CNET Blog Network, a collection
of blogs written by leading industry experts about technology�s
influence on a variety of topics, such as sports, politics, green
technology, parenting, and more. Available at
http://blogs.cnet.com, the bloggers were hand-selected by CNET
editors and chosen because of their knowledge, credibility, and
authenticity, as well as their ability to further expand CNET�s
coverage of technology and its impact on the world today. The CNET
Blog Network expands upon the site�s existing blog franchises,
which include Crave (http://crave.cnet.com), a gadget blog; Webware
(http://webware.cnet.com), a blog about Web 2.0 sites, services,
and applications; and the CNET News Blogs (http://blogs.news.com),
a collection of blogs covering the latest tech news and trends.
Featuring experts such as Peter Glaskowsky, Vinod Khosla, and
Martin Tobias, the addition of independent voices to the CNET
community allows CNET to further expand the conversations happening
on the site between editors and users about today�s hottest
technology products, news, and trends. �CNET fosters a community
where people can share their ideas and thoughts on the technology
topics that most interest them,� said Jai Singh, senior vice
president and editor-in-chief of CNET. �The inclusion of these new
independent voices on our network provides users with an even
richer and comprehensive experience, as they turn to CNET to learn
about the latest in tech and consumer electronics.� �The CNET blog
network will allow us to explore the evolving impact of new
technology on families. We will talk about what happens after we
unwrap new gadgets and take them home,� said Amy Tiemann, Ph. D.,
who is teaming with husband and open-source pioneer Michael to
write the new parenting and technology blog. �We are excited that
CNET's new blog network is reaching out beyond traditional media
borders. CNET will deliver our expert insights directly to an
audience of tech-savvy parents who are grappling with these issues
on a daily basis.� The 18 bloggers were invited to join the CNET
Blog Network to bring fresh perspectives; CNET will be adding more
topics and bloggers in the coming months. These bloggers are
expected to uphold the same journalism standards as the CNET
editors, so users can expect the same level of editorial quality
from contributors to the CNET Blog Network as they do from CNET
editors. The Blog Network will comprise 14 new blogs, including:
Cellular Obsession � Popular talk-show host Ronn Owens from San
Francisco�s KGO Radio has talked so much to his listeners about the
latest cell phones that it�s become a passionate hobby. Owens

incredible things in the most unlikely of places and loves bringing
