"Techmeme began as "tech.memeorandum" on Sept. 12, 2005. Yeah, I know it wasn't a great name. Thanks to adoption among influential bloggers and tech enthusiasts, the site was rebranded as Techmeme the following year and given its own domain name. From the outset, the platform's core goals were to let the web itself serve as the editor, uncover new sources quickly, and connect related conversations for a holistic view of each story."
"Now, Techmeme is not a news site per se. Its tiny staff of three full-time editors and 23 part-time editors doesn't write news. They gather the site's stories from across the web in as close to real-time as possible and sort them by hotness and importance."
Techmeme is a technology news aggregator launched in September 2005 and founded by Gabe Rivera. The platform remains independent and self-funded, combining automated crawling and ranking algorithms with human editorial oversight. A small editorial team of three full-time and 23 part-time editors curates links gathered from across the web, grouping related conversations and ordering items by hotness and importance. The site emphasizes rapid discovery of new sources, conversational context around stories, and service to journalists, tech executives, and engaged readers as a centralized feed for timely technology developments.
