CNET (short for Computer Network) is an American media website that
publishes reviews, news, articles, blogs, podcasts, and videos on
technology and consumer electronics globally. Founded in 1994 by
Halsey Minor and Shelby Bonnie, it was the flagship brand of CNET
Networks and became a brand of CBS Interactive through that unit's
acquisition of CNET Networks in 2008. CNET originally produced content
for radio and television in addition to its website and now uses new
media distribution methods through its Internet television network,
CNET Video, and its podcast and blog networks.In addition, CNET
currently has region-specific and language-specific editions. These
include Chinese, French, German, Japanese, Korean, and Spanish.

CNET is the highest-read technology news source on the Web, with over
200 million readers per month, being among the 200 most visited
websites globally, as of 2015.In 1994, with the help from Fox Network
co-founder Kevin Wendle and former Disney creative associate Dan
Baker, CNET produced four pilot television programs about computers,
technology, and the Internet. CNET TV was composed of CNET Central,
The Web, and The New Edge. CNET Central was created first and aired in
syndication in the United States on the USA Network. Later, it began
airing on USA's sister network Sci-Fi Channel along with The Web and
The New Edge. These were later followed by TV.com in 1996. Current
