Our History

TECHGEEK.com.au launched in 2007 with a vision - to keep you up to date with the latest in technology - and despite being in a crowded market, we still have found success as we focus our attention to bringing Australia more choice to get their technology news, written in a perspective that is understandable to both those in the know and those who find themselves lost in the technology lingo.

Started by Terence Huynh, with help from Jay Day and Stewart Wilson, we begun operations under the wing of ScoreRight Services before moving on our own; and it took us a year to be able to secure our own domain name (previously, we were subdomains), TECHGEEK.com.au - reflecting our mission and our target audience, but it didn't stop us from covering tech for an international audience.

Now with over 2,000 blog posts spanning three years on the job, TECHGEEK.com.au brings together technology and Australian culture, showcasing what Australia has to offer tech-wise and also what the world has to offer to Australians. With Terence Huynh as the Executive Editor, along with Stewart Wilson, James Wilson and Shane Luckman; TECHGEEK.com.au has news covering almost every niche in the tech industry. Also, TECHGEEK.com.au will provide the latest news from New Zealand with our own correspondent, Luke Chandler, within TECHGEEK.com.au.

TECHGEEK.com.au is owned by Reawaken Media, and is based in Melbourne, Australia.
