Technology coverage online is wide but fragmented. Most readers end up in one corner — consumer-tech YouTube, the Hacker News front page, an AI-focused newsletter — and miss the others. WeSearch's technology hub mixes them, in chronological order, so a Verge product review sits next to a Hacker News thread on infrastructure next to an FT piece on tech-industry economics.
The argument for cross-mixing is that the tech industry doesn't actually split cleanly along the lines its press splits along. A new chip release matters to consumers (the Verge), engineers (Ars Technica), shareholders (Bloomberg), policy people (Lawfare), and developers (Hacker News) all at once. The full picture lives across publishers; the hub puts them next to each other.
What's in this hub
Consumer tech press. The Verge, TechCrunch, Engadget, Wired, the Information, the Atlantic Tech, MIT Technology Review, Mashable Tech, Fast Company, Inverse.
Infrastructure and engineering. Ars Technica, the Register, Phoronix (Linux), LWN, Hacker News (front page), Stack Overflow Blog, GitHub Engineering, AWS News, Cloudflare Blog, Datadog Engineering, Netflix Tech Blog, Uber Engineering.
AI-specific. See the dedicated AI news hub for the full AI-focused source list. The technology hub surfaces AI stories that intersect with the broader tech industry (deals, M&A, regulatory, applied use cases) without duplicating the AI hub.
Programming and dev. The Register, Phoronix, Stack Overflow Blog, GitHub Blog, Pragmatic Engineer (Substack RSS), High Scalability, Martin Fowler, Hillel Wayne, Julia Evans, Dan Luu, Sandi Metz, individual engineering blogs we trust.
Security. Krebs on Security, Schneier on Security, the Record, BleepingComputer, Have I Been Pwned, GreyNoise, Sophos News, Talos Intelligence.
Tech policy. Lawfare, Stratechery, Platformer, Tech Policy Press, Public Knowledge, the Verge Policy.
Industry and business. The Information, Bloomberg Tech, Reuters Technology, Financial Times Tech, the Wall Street Journal Tech, the New York Times Tech, the Atlantic Business.
What you'll find here

- Developer tooling news (compilers, languages, frameworks, IDEs)
- Cloud-infrastructure and SRE coverage
- Long-form tech-business journalism
How this hub overlaps with others
Several stories sit at the boundary between hubs. A new GPU launch is technology + markets (NVDA stock reaction) + AI (training-compute implications) all at once. Antitrust action against a major platform is technology + politics + business. Rather than try to slot every story into one hub, we let the source's own classification decide and accept that you'll see overlapping coverage if you read multiple hubs. The home feed merges everything chronologically anyway.
How to use the technology hub well
- Build a "Mine" feed of just the publishers you actually read. Discover → tap any source you like → it joins your Mine list. Switch the home tab to Mine and you get a personalized feed without an algorithm.
- Subscribe to push for specific topics. Settings → Notifications → Watches → Categories. Pick "tech" and you'll get notified when major tech stories land.
- Use comment threads to find depth. The Hacker News front page surfaces stories; the WeSearch thread under a tech story often has working engineers explaining what the article got right or wrong.
- Read the AI hub alongside. If your interest in tech is mostly AI-shaped, the AI hub is denser on that beat.
What we don't cover well yet
We're stronger on US/UK English-language tech coverage than on Chinese, Indian, and European tech press. Caixin, Nikkei Asia, Rest of World, Sifted, and Tech in Asia get pulled in but the depth isn't there yet. We're working to add regional tech coverage as we find sources with usable RSS.
