What your favourite Web sites say about you

CNET.co.uk
What's the story?
The site you see before you is the result of hard work, dedication and a ludicrously overblown love for technology. It launched on 18 May 2005 with a small team of crack journalists, eager to emulate the success enjoyed by its US cousin, CNET.com.

It currently employs ten editorial staff, or 'word monkeys' as they like to be known. They are Nate Lanxon, Rory Reid, Andrew Lim, Ian Morris, Richard Trenholm, Kate Macefield, Nick Hide, Jason Jenkins, Michael Parsons and Mary Lojkine. Rupert Goodwins, who works for sister site ZDNet.co.uk, often contributes to the Crave Podcast and once worked for a purveyor of weapons of mass destruction.

The site offers thousands of up-to-date product reviews, news, videos, a podcast and a burgeoning downloads section where you can download free and free-to-try applications.

Did you know?
One of the job requirements for working at CNET.co.uk is having a rock 'n' roll lifestyle. We've partied with the Pussycat Dolls, rubbed shoulders with famous TV presenters and are forever smashing up inanimate objects in five-star hotel rooms. Some of our favourite activities include playing with model aircraft, dressing up in spandex and scaring the general public with things that look like bombs.

What CNET.co.uk says about you
CNET.co.uk attracts a wide variety of users but they almost always have one thing in common: they're gorgeous. Oh, and they like technology. Sure, they use MySpace, Facebook and once, misguidedly, even created a Twitter account (but they're sorry for that last part).

They're the best sort of people to be around. They're highly educated, well-travelled and they possess the sort of qualities every mother tries to instil in her child. They'll one day go on to broker world peace, cure the incurable and are the very reason we wake up for work in the mornings. They're great and we love them all. Even the ones who think we sold them something and ring us up to complain.
