| - Gizmodo is a popular technology weblog about consumer electronics. It is part of the Gawker Media network run by Nick Denton.
The blog, launched in 2002, was originally edited by Peter Rojas, but he was recruited by Weblogs, Inc. to launch their similar technology blog Engadget. By mid-2004, Gizmodo and Gawker together were bringing in revenue of $6,000 per month.
In 2005, VNU and Gawker Media formed an alliance to republish Gizmodo across Europe, with VNU translating the content into French, German, Dutch, Spanish, and Italian, and add local European-interest material.
In April 2007, Allure Media launched [http://www.gizmodo.com.au/ Gizmodo Australia], under license from Gawker Media and incorporating additional Australian content.
In November 2007, the Dutch magazine license was taken over by HUB Uitgevers.
A Gizmodo blogger captured the first photos from the floor of CES 2007, and according to Reuters, journalists at the (simultaneous) Macworld debated whether Gizmodo or Engadget had the better live coverage of Steve Jobs's 2007 keynote..
Apple, Inc.'s Steve Jobs noted that Gizmodo was his favorite gadgets blog, further fueling a long-standing feud between Gizmodo and Engadget.
Gizmodo editors disrupted several presentations held at CES 2008 by secretly turning off flatscreen TVs using TV-B-Gone remotes. This resulted in Gizmodo editor Richard Blakeley being barred from CES 2008, and any future CES Events, with further action possibly taking place against Gizmodo. (en)
