Blogs unafraid to get into the nitty gritty, bits and the bytes of technology.

Vacuous Virtuoso
Javascript, Mac issues, Web design, raps about the iPhone SDK: author Ankur Kothari can claim genuine geek status.

There’s a lot going on here, with software/DRM/personal tech posts commented on by a sizeable readership.

A serious, detailed look at search engine policy, focusing on Google and the DMCA.

Geek and Poke
Talented comic creator Oliver Widder, an IT guy living in Hamburg, Germany, draws and writes comics that actually make technology funny. Updated often.

Everything about this blog is cool, from its light gray font to its emphasis on environmentally-friendly emerging technology. Carbon furniture, anyone?

Mark Kersey’s HDTV News Blogs
Kersey searches high and low for all the headlines – and also summarizes the stories – to keep you up on every last detail of high-def. He’s into it.
