They get MAJOR kickbacks from the big guys (and when they don't, they complain) for writing what they write. Frankly, I'm irritated with them. They *think* they know what we (the little people out here) want in terms of online productivity but really, it's all about them having the latest toys. It wears me out watching the big thing each day (and each day has its own *big* thing). I think you’re completely right about the tech bloggers’/journalists’ buy-in.
