Today we live in an age of yellow journalism,
where mainstream media sensationalizes content in order to increase circulation
and increase profits. By putting television shows on the cover of their
newspapers, or nicknaming a horrible conflict as a showdown, they have given
up on real journalism. YellowTimes.org offers you an alternative.

When
it comes to information technology, I know what I am talking about.
Twenty years in and around the PC business have earned me wisdom,
if not wealth. It's not that I am so smart, but that my friends
are smart. The best and brightest in Silicon Valley talk to me all
the time. It's my job to sift through their thoughts for valuable
bits to share with you
