The Father Jack of the IT press, Mike Magee has opened
another site dedicated to kicking the industry in its collective nadgers.
TechEye.net, headed up editorially by Mike Magee, founder
of The Register, The Inquirer, will cover everything IT, geek, science, gadget
and more, promising to deliver daily updates on all the latest hardware,
software, business, mobile, chip and security news. According to the press release the rag will be run by a
dedicated and enthusiastic team of seasoned writers will break stories and
provide accurate and informative content, including news, reviews and editorial
opinion.
Regular contributors include Tom Foremski, head honcho at the

self-confessed social media nerd and experienced IT writer Alexandra Pullin and
old-school ex military IT darling Sylvie Barak.
The outfit has the Ancient Egyptian Eye of Horus as its
logo which is supposed to see off evil. Magee tells us it is to keep its
peepers directly on every aspect and area of the tech industry.
“TechEye will boldly go and examine everything, register
them, inquire about them, in an accurate way. We are the Tech Aliens,” he said.
