I actually don't have a favorite since I don't tend to visit tech news pages in a dedicated way.

I just have the two personal start pages I use (my.netscape.com and start.earthlink.net) setup to list current tech news and both of them seem to link to ZDNet articles more than any other if memory serves. So, I voted for ZDNet.

My fav place is http://www.techtv.com/ and I am watching it on cableTV. But, I will vote for CNET if TECHTV does not qualify as news.

If I am not wrong, ZDnet is part of C|Net.

I suppose if they can be referred to as geek sites, then
my vote is for both MozillaZine and MozillaNews, even
though these sites are not currently listed in the poll.

For overall news, I would go to Slashdot.

For Mozilla News, the choice is obvious.
