TechHive began in 2012 as a general consumer tech site and narrowed its focus to smart home and video streaming in 2017. Today we’re announcing that all new TechHive content will be published on our sister site PCWorld in a newly launched TechHive section.
Why the move? First, PCWorld reaches a much larger audience of tech enthusiasts, DIYers, and early adopters. With a publishing legacy that began in 1983 and an online presence since 1992, PCWorld offers a broader platform for TechHive’s coverage of home technology.
Second, PCWorld has been expanding its digital security coverage, and as digital and physical security increasingly overlap, integrating TechHive’s smart home security coverage into PCWorld’s security reporting makes sense. You’ll find TechHive content on security cameras, video doorbells, smart locks, smart lighting, and related topics on PCWorld’s smart-home security pages.
You’ll also find Jared Newman’s Cord-Cutter Confidential column and other video streaming coverage that have been central to TechHive’s identity over the past seven years.
We’re also relaunching the TechHive YouTube channel. New videos are already live, and we plan a steady stream of product demos and coverage timed with CES 2025 in January.
Going forward, we’ll continue to cover the products and categories TechHive readers expect, while expanding into more lifestyle-focused home tech and health and wellness technology. This broader video and editorial vision pairs well with PCWorld’s long history of serving early adopters.
Please visit the new TechHive hub on PCWorld for all new content. Much of TechHive’s security and streaming archive has already been migrated to PCWorld, and new TechHive articles will appear there. TechHive’s legacy library remains accessible on the original site.
