I’m an Editor at Large for CNET News writing about Apple, Microsoft, virtual reality, video games, internet culture and parenting.

Previously, I wrote for The Wall Street Journal, Reuters and the Agence France-Presse, among others. I’ve also served as an Executive Editor at CNET, managing west coast news coverage.

This site contains some of my best work covering companies such as Apple, Facebook, Microsoft, Sony and Electronic Arts. I’ve also written some fun pieces along the way.

Below are a few of my favorites.

If you want to connect with me, I’m on almost any social network under the username iansherr.
