    Io9.com - A Blog Sci-Fi Style

    The Gawker empire has set loose another media monster called io9,a blog catering to you Sci-fi fans out there. The site design and construction is familiar to Gawker readers.

    The usual suspects are there: headlines, tags, and a blurb to whet your appetite should you choose to read more. The articles cover all sorts of sci-fi geekery and news, like the lastest on Hollywood’s sci-fi efforts, videogames, indie sci-fi movies,tv art, and your usual cultural ephemera. With the Gawkerbots, doing the talking there’s a lot being said, plenty of info, and with the comments section, there’s a chance for sci-fi fans to converge and communicate.

    Some questions about Io9.com

    Will true geeks like the Gawker spin on sci-fi? Will it be too glib for the sci-fi fan who wants more indepth articles and a chance to have indepth discussion about their favorite sci-fi topic?

    Io9.com In their own words

    “Earth is full of people who want to sell you cheap ways of seeing the future. They tell you tomorrow will be more of the same, with shinier toys. Or that work as we know it is about to end. io9 is the visionary watchdog who calls those charlatans on their shit. We're going to show you a new world that's shockingly different from what you're used to. And it's not always going to be a shiny happy place.”

    Why Io9.com might be a killer

    Gawker cannot be stopped. With the popularity of Gawker brother and sisters, like Deadspin and Gridskipper, io9 surely will have no problem finding an audience. Io9 is also mainstream readable enough for the less geek-inclined.
