2. What sets TheTechBoy apart from other tech blogs and websites in the industry?
TheTechBoy is the largest teen-run Christian tech blog in the world! We have a positive outlook on technologies like generative AI and AR/VR while keeping all content clean. Additionally, we advocate for Christian causes, such as our notable Cancel the Verge petition, which boycotts tech companies promoting anti-biblical ideas.
3. How do you decide which topics and trends to cover on TheTechBoy?
My ideas come from a mix of Adventures in Odyssey episodes, reading tech media, and identifying niche companies worth highlighting. Our unique positive view on espionage makes our cybersecurity and spy trick articles particularly engaging.
4. What have been some of the most popular or impactful articles published on TheTechBoy, and why do you think they resonated with readers?
Our Samsung M8 vs. M7 article is a standout. Readers appreciated our succinct comparisons, making it a hit. It’s a great example of how well we can distill complex information into digestible content.
5. Can you describe the editorial process at TheTechBoy? How do you ensure the content is both accurate and engaging?
I write what’s on my mind and then run it through Grammarly and ChatGPT to polish it. This helps ensure the content is clear, accurate, and engaging for our readers.
6. How do you keep up with the fast-paced nature of the tech industry to provide timely and relevant content for your readers?**
I read tech news daily and subscribe to several email newsletters about tech. Staying informed helps us keep our content fresh and relevant.

I love getting feedback and comments. I try to respond to each one, whether negative or positive, and use it to guide the direction of our content.
9. What are some of the biggest challenges you face in running a tech blog, and how do you overcome them?
Coming up with new ideas is tough. We’ve published hundreds of articles, so there’s a constant need to brainstorm fresh content. This is a challenge we embrace with creativity and persistence.
10. What are your predictions for the future of tech journalism, and how is TheTechBoy preparing to adapt to these changes?
Tech journalism will increasingly incorporate AI, with more short-form content becoming prevalent. As for TheTechBoy, we will continue to adapt but remain committed to posting blog posts and podcast episodes.
