GigaOM 2.0 Launches

It’s been a whirlwind month as we’ve been working on the new design of GigaOM.com, the online property founded by award-winning journalist and famous tech blogger, Om Malik.

“GigaOM.com is an online news and weblog published by Giga Omni Media Inc., a San Franciso-based company. We deliver technology news, analysis and opinions on topics ranging from broadband to online games and Web 2.0 to a monthly global audience of 500,000 consumers and professionals interested in the world of hi-tech. Our readers include industry leaders, venture capitalists, investment professionals and entrepreneurs around the world. Our unique combination of in-depth reporting, editorial articles, community opinion polls, and internet market metrics highlight the most interesting startups, products, and people in technology. GigaOM.com is ranked in the top 100 IT news sites by Hitwise, an Internet tracking service. The site is among the top 50 blogs as ranked by Technorati, and part of C/Net 100 Most Influential Blogs.”

In addition to a new design, the revamped site features category navigation as GigaOM expands its coverage, now including Startups, Connected Home, VOIP, Mobile, Broadband, Software 2.0, India, Inc., and Online Games.  There are individual RSS feeds for each category if you only want to follow a few areas, or you can get the Featured Stories RSS with GigaOM’s top picks.  My choice?  Get the GigaFEED of all stories.

The new GigaOM launched yesterday and then it was off to the party at Mighty.  I had already been a reader of GigaOM and respected his opinions before I met Om, but I knew I liked him as a person the first time we met and he was instantly charming, genuine, and cool.  It’s been a pleasure working with Om, Dave, Nitin, Foofy, Barry, and all of TeamGiga… here’s to more.

Visit the site, get the GigaFEED, and stay tuned for more to come as GigaOM launches new features. 

Also see news at Ideacodes.  Special thanks goes to web guy extraordinaire Ben Bleikamp and his late nights.

UPDATE: Thanks to everyone who sent in congrats and comments!

I expect much of the coverage of the Web 2.0 conference to focus on the bubble/hype question, but we’ll be on the lookout for meaningful coverage of Infrastructure 2.0. Is the pixie dust working?
