Living at the Speed of Updates


Being a tech news guy means living in a world where yesterday’s innovation is today’s old headline. Every morning starts the same — coffee in one hand, notifications in the other, scanning through a flood of updates, leaks, and launches. By 9 a.m., I’ve already rewritten three stories because something newer just dropped.

Covering tech isn’t just about knowing specs or reading press releases. It’s about chasing the pulse — understanding why people care. Sure, a new chip might be faster or a phone might fold better, but the real story is how it changes the way we live, work, and think. That’s what keeps me hooked.

Sometimes, it’s pure chaos. Like the day Apple announced its mixed-reality headset — my inbox exploded with press invites, memes, and debates about whether we’re ready to live inside the “metaverse.” I spent the next 12 hours analyzing reactions, comparing specs, and crafting a piece that didn’t sound like every other headline out there. That’s the challenge — finding your voice in the noise.

And then there are days that remind you why you love this world — like when a small startup in Bangalore or Berlin launches something genuinely fresh. I love those underdog stories — the quiet innovations that never trend on Twitter but end up shaping the next big thing.

Being in tech media also means balancing skepticism with excitement. Every breakthrough promises to “change everything,” but experience teaches you that real change takes time — and sometimes, restraint. My readers don’t just want hype; they want honesty. So I try to be that bridge — translating complex tech into something real, without losing the wonder.

Behind the glossy headlines, though, it’s a grind. Constant deadlines, embargoes, late-night launches from the other side of the world — it never stops. But I wouldn’t trade it. There’s something addictive about documenting the future as it unfolds, one push notification at a time.

So yes, I’m that guy who still gets goosebumps at a product keynote. Because to me, tech isn’t just about gadgets — it’s about human ambition, the relentless urge to build something better. And that story never gets old.
