Hi there I'm Mat from Techmoan.
I'm just a normal chap, I work full time in an office in Manchester (UK) and then in my spare time I update this site.
In 2007 I uploaded a 41 second clip of my toaster to youtube - just to prove a point. I was trying to show that people would watch anything on youtube. I was right...it very quickly went beyond 100,000 views and I became fascinated in following the viewing stats which showed that people from all over the world were viewing this pointless video of my toaster.
I have a camcorder (or two) a decent speaking voice and a computer (or three), so I started making more complicated videos of things that interested me....and that's how we get to here.
The adverts overlaid on the videos and dotted about this site might be an annoyance to some, but they are what enables me to pay for new things to review. The only commodity that I am short of is time and as a result the more complex reviews can take me weeks to put together.
If anyone wants to get in touch to send me something interesting to look at, you can contact me via the form on the front page. Products are reviewed honestly and fairly, but not always favourably.
Lastly, why 'Techmoan'...well originally I was intending to split the site between tech talk and moaning about things I found annoying. I quickly decided that no-one would want to read someone else's whining and just stuck to the tech. So the name means nothing really, but Google, eBay and Amazon don't make sense either and they seem to get on just fine.
Thanks for visiting, hope to see you again soon,
Mat.
™Techmoan.
