Anandtech




AnandTech is one of the larger Online Computer Hardware Journal s in the English-speaking world. AnandTech was founded in 1997 by then 14-year-old Anand Lal Shimpi .

Additionally, AnandTech is home to a large Forum , purported to be one of the largest on the Internet . It boasts more than 120,000 members and more than 17 million message posts.

The most active forum category at Anandtech Forums is the Off Topic forum. As of April 25th, 2006, there were 218,458 active topics in the Off Topic category. Topics that have been inactive for 90 days are automatically archived.

Forums are moderated by voluntary (but nominated) forum members who use the alias "Anandtech Moderator" when a user abuses/spams the forums.

In 2004 AnandTech added a feature to search for computer prices via a price engine developed in house by the senior editor as a graduate project in data mining. This price engine is called RTPE .

In 2006 AnandTech launched a spin-off site called DailyTech , a technology news site. The move followed a similar evolution of the news section of AnandTech's peer publication, Tom's Hardware Guide , into TG Daily some months earlier.
