[Clip] How I Got into Technology Journalism

This is a clip from the 10K Subscriber Q&A Stream from Oct-24th, where I’m answering questions off the cuff. For this question, I explain how I got into tech journalism through the overclocking scene, and meeting the right people. There’s also an interesting dynamic in those that make tech journalism a career.

Thumbnail is a 2014 picture from my first Mobile World Congress show, with Anand.
