Thoughts Media Network Awarded PC Magazine's "Top 100 Sites You Didn't Know You Couldn't Live Without"
"Thoughts Media Network is the portal page to two sites, Smartphone Thoughts and Pocket PC Thoughts, for people who like to keep something intelligent in their pockets. Whether you're into cell phones that think they're PDAs or PDAs that know they're PDAs, you'll find the latest news and lively discussions among kindred spirits."
Thoughts Media sites and their respective teams were bestowed a surprise honour today - PC Magazine published an article where they listed off their pick of the top 100 Web sites that people might know know about, but should. The main article lists off several categories including computing, entertainment, lifestyle, politics, and other categories. Thoughts Media was put in the Consumer Electronics and Photography, alongside sites such as Gizmodo and Phone Scoop. Considering the relatively small number of technology sites in this list, it's an even greater honour.
I'd like to thank each one of you for contributing to the community here - Thoughts Media sites wouldn't be the same without a vibrant, helpful group of people sharing the same interests. You keep us motivated, involved, challenged, and focused. Thank you!
You'll notice it says two sites, but there are of course three sites - given that this is in PC Magazine, my assumption is that this article was written 6-8 weeks ago, before Digital Media Thoughts launched. I'm confident that if DMT had been around for a while, that award would have been for three excellent sites. ;-) It would be cool to have some of you post some positive comments, so if you're so inclined, you can do so here.

Blah, blah, blah. We all know this is the best site going. My only question is "What took PC Magazine so long to figure it out"?
Nice job Jason, staff, and community.

CONGRATULATIONS!!! I feel it's a well deserved award, this is the best PPC only news site out there, and I'd argue it has the best and easiest to access forums as well - for any type of site. Very nicely layed out, navigation is a breeze, and it's pretty! (unlike the site giving the award:P) Oh yeah, plus it's free (my favourite feature) I also like the fact that people like me aren't censored if our opinions differ (heck even the PPCThoughts team's opinions differ sometimes!). Keep up the good work and may you enjoy continued success!

Congrats Jason and folks!
I've always found articles posted here interesting and easy to discuss. The forums here contain solutions to virtually any problem related to PocketPCs. I've hardly visited any support sites or Googled for a solution to a problem because I've always found it here. Excellent stuff!! :rock on dude!:
