Journalism - The Register

The Register is Europe's largest IT news website, with over one-and-a-half million page impressions a day. I worked on the site for nearly two years, writing four to five stories a day. I still do occasional pieces for them.

Its hard-hitting but light-hearted and entertaining approach to news has made it a prime example of what the Web is best at. It may well be seen as a trailblazer in years to come.

I have yet to reformat all the old stories from my previous site (in fact I had only just started compiling the 2,000 or so stories I have written for The Reg), but I'm working on it.

Those stories I have pulled across can be found under the year headings below. Underneath them are the three most recent stories I have written for The Reg and then some of the stories/features I am most pleased with.
