TechHive opened for business in 2012 as a general consumer tech site. In 2017, we narrowed the focus to smart home and video streaming, responding to the hottest new developments in personal tech. It’s been a great run, but today we’re announcing that all new TechHive content will be published to sister site PCWorld on a just-launched TechHive section. Why the change? First, we want TechHive content to reach as many people as possible, and PCWorld simply has a much larger audience of tech enthusiasts, DIYers, and early adopters. PCWorld launched as a computer magazine in 1983 and became a web domain in 1992. You just can’t beat this kind of institutional legacy, and we’re confident that TechHive will use its new platform to reach many more people interested in home technology. Second, in recent years PCWorld has made a deliberate push to expand its digital security content. And as digital security blends ever more closely with physical security, it just makes sense to fold TechHive’s smart home security content into PCWorld’s security story. So, please check out the new TechHive landing page for articles on security cameras, video doorbells, smart locks, smart lighting and more. You’ll also find Jared Newman’s wildly popular Cord-Cutter Confidential column, along with other video streaming content that has helped define TechHive over the last seven years. Third, we’re relaunching the dormant TechHive YouTube channel! New videos have already gone live, and we’re planning for a steady stream of new product demos from CES 2025 in January. We’ll be covering products and categories familiar to TechHive readers, while also expanding into more lifestyle-oriented home tech, plus health and wellness tech. We think this broader video vision is a great match for PCWorld, which has been speaking to early adopters throughout its 40-plus years of publishing. So, once again, I invite you to check out the new TechHive hub. We’ve migrated much of TechHive security and streaming content to PCWorld already, and, going forward, all new TechHive content will appear on that page. Meanwhile, you can still access TechHive’s deep library of legacy content right here on this website.
