Well, spill the beans. Where are the “good” sites then?

I would've suggested AllThingsD (from the WSJ), but you have to pay for access of their columns.

For general sci/tech news nothing better than the good old Register, your tech news and reviews delivered with a sarcastic flare, just the way I like it.

http://www.theregister.co.uk/

For more serious reviews I always go to Tom's hardware, been following his site for years from when he first started doing reviews and talking hardware, now of course he is quite big and has an army of reviewers and testers etc to do the write ups. They can get quite technical, which is great if you like that sort of thing :)

http://www.tomshardware.com

Lastly for gadget news, reviews etc I just peruse Engadget who pretty much grab all the cool stories from around the world that you would be interested in. Of course they are owned by AOL now so take it with a pinch of salt, but gives you info on things you can research further on your own.

This is not to say there are no other sites which would be just as good, these are just the ones I have used for years, if anyone else has good ones please share :)

I also use ars technica. Owned by Conde-Nast, and I think it's pretty good.

I think that Anandtech is the head and shoulders above them all, if you don't ask for a review of every product in existence and are willing to dig. They start each review with a great high-level description of the state of technology relevant to the product, followed by an intensely detailed and exhaustive review. Their reviews are roughly daily, so they don't touch on that many products. For that, you will need to venture into the comments, which I have found to be level-headed and well-informed. The site does not attract those seeking instant gratification and a forum for bloviating.
