Gizmodo is a well known website about gadget, technology, consumer electronics; must say a hub of  information on quite a lot of products. It belongs to the Gawker Media a network managed by Denton Nick .The blog was launched in the year 2002, and was edited by Peter Rojas in the beginning. However he was employed by ‘Weblogs Inc’. To start their technology blog called Engadget which was very similar to the previous one. By June 2004, Gawker and Gizmodo jointly brought in income of $6,000 per month. In the year 2005, Gawker Media and VNU created an association to reissue Gizmodo all across Europe, with the VNU content being translated into Spanish, German, Portuguese, Dutch, French, and Italian, also adding the native European-interest material.

In April 2007, Allure Media inaugurated  Australia Gizmodo, under a license from Gawker Media and adding more Australian content. In the month of November in 2007, the license of a Dutch magazine had been taken over by  Uitgevers HUB.A blogger of Gizmodo clicked the first pictures from the CES 2007, and as said by the Reuters, journalists present at the Macworld discussed whether the Gizmodo or the Engadget had a better coverage of the 2007 keynote of Steve Jobs. Apple, Inc.’s stated that Gizmodo is his favorite blog of all the gadgets, further telling them about long-standing argument between Engadget and Gizmodo.

A videographer from the Gizmodo’s publisher and Gawker’s Media, , disturbed a large number of presentations that were held at the CES 2008, by secretly switching off the LCD TVs using the remotes of TV-B-Gone. This led Richard Blakeley, the videographer being expelled from the CES 2008, or any other future events of the CES. In the year 2008, Gizmodo Brazil had been launched with content in Portuguese. Brian Lam is the present chief editor of the Gizmodo.
