TechSpot Weekly: Congrats Jos!
Considering our fellow U.S. readers are enjoying a long weekend I will keep things brief and up to the point. I'm glad to report that August was TechSpot's best month ever for incoming traffic. We broke our previous record from last November receiving over 4.7 million unique visitors and serving 11+ million page views.
Coming up later this week, we'll have a new SSD round-up. For this article in particular we are focusing on budget sub-$150 models, reviewing all the best available models in that category. To make matters even more interesting we have also thrown the highly touted Seagate Momentus XT hybrid hard drive into the mix.
On the next installment of TechSpot Weekly we will begin to ask for your direct feedback on things pertinent to the work we do on the site and the articles we write. In the meantime, I wanted to mention one excellent idea sent in by community member red1776. In light of recent hardware performance articles we've posted, he suggested we open a forum dedicated to "extreme machines" and ultra-enthusiast level discussion only.
We love the idea and we believe it also opens the door for running a 'rig of the month' feature where the selected rig owner would be interviewed and receive a special prize for his entry. At least you will have more excuse than just Crysis 2 to upgrade after last week's DNF announcement.

Congrats Jose for your marriage! and also congratulations to all Techspot staff and readers, we're making our site grow bigger and better each day! About the rig of the month idea, I like it, but would like to add a little competition to it. How about if, for each month you post 2 or 3 rigs from the community, anyone can submit their rig, not only high end machines (since not all of us have money to spend on two GTX480's + i7 970) and let the same community vote for the best, having in mind not only raw power, but asthetics, creativity and balance in components... that's my humble opinion... |

Gratz to Jose! Where are the wedding pictures? Nice is a beautiful city. I'm sure that will be rough duty for Jose and his new bride. Also well done to the TechSpot staff. One of my favorite tech websites that I refer to others routinely. |

Good idea on the MBA. Technical people never make any money in the us. |
