MIT Technology Review

MIT Technology Review is a magazine created by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. It originally started in 1899 as The Technology Review but was rebranded on April 23, 1998, dropping "The" from its title, under the leadership of publisher R. Bruce Journey. In September 2005, it was revamped again by the current editor-in-chief and publisher, Jason Pontin, bringing it back to a style similar to its earlier days.
