    Does anyone know a sutable category for a technology related blog website?

    Ive found a few similar categories, but none seem sutable for a tech blog.

    If it's the one in your sig, then no category will list it... Its still got the default blog roll and only two posts. You'll need to post a bit more, become established, then see where that takes you. You may find that a category for it will be easier to find.


    If it's not the one in your sig, then please let us know which site, so we can check it out.

    What Q said. IME, most blogs are ephemeral and disappear when the owner realises that maintaining a decent one takes work. A one day old one that's still UC with only 2 posts is very unlikely to be listed. After all, we can't even tell what your blog's focus will be.

    If you stay with smart phones, Computers/Systems/Handhelds/Smartphones.
    If you generalise to include your other interests, it'll probably be considered to be a personal page (until you've gained traction approaching gizmodo's).

    At the end of the day, make your website to be what you want it to be without considering DMOZ listability. If it becomes useful (say at least 50 on target posts) and manages to avoid the plagiarised content syndrome, that's the time to suggest it. The content will tell you the category :).
