About Ryan Block

I’m Ryan Block, the editor-in-chief of Engadget, a web magazine focused on obsessive coverage of consumer electronics and technology. In addition to appearing to speak at Engadget events and (formerly) co-hosting a weekly podcast, I’m also a contributor to and a founding editor of Joystiq, and a technology critic and commentator who has been quoted by the BBC, Business Week, Chicago Tribune, The New York Times, The Guardian, The Times, and The Wall St. Journal. I was also named one of Forbes’s 2007 Web Celeb 25, and, for whatever reason, named one of Paper Magazine’s Beautiful People, 2006. Prior to Engadget, I worked in network engineering before returning to my education in writing and philosophy at the New School University in New York. I currently reside in San Francisco, California with my girlfriend and two cats.
