Engadget’s logo gets boosted… for a Croatian civic action group!

We don’t know exactly what it is about the Engadget logo that people love so much (well, we have some ideas), but our name and likeness does seem to pop up in the most unusual places. This time, it’s more unusual than, er… usual. Apparently, our sweet E is being used as the prime designator [...]

Unbagging: Joshua Topolsky

Unbagging is a new feature inspired by one of our favorite Flickr groups: what’s in your bag? The premise is simple — empty out your bag, arrange what’s inside, and snap a photo. Engadget will be taking a look inside the bags of some of the people we know and love in the tech world, [...]

Video: Josh talks Apple on G4′s Attack of the Show

We’re nominated for an EPpy Award!

We don’t really like to get self-congratulatory at Engadget — we prefer to let the work speak for itself. Still, we thought it was pretty cool when we heard that we’d been nominated for an EPpy Award in the category of “Best Consumer Technology Blog.” We’re not alone, either — the AOL family picked up [...]

Engadget endorses Monster Cable? Uh, hell no.

You know, we were as surprised as anyone to see a totally out-of-context quote of ours used on a Monster Cable site (without permission, mind you) to sell the company’s “Beats by Dre” headphones (you can see the screen cap after the break). It’s ironic, really, given that we currently have a blacklist in place [...]
