Colorado Tech Weekly brings you the top 10 information technology stories of the past week and the best upcoming local events every Monday morning!
I thought by limiting myself to 10 news stories per week I was making it easier on myself. This week I had over 50 news stories to choose from for this post! That’s a lot of news! I need to think of a way to share more news. Maybe I’ll do a Reddit page or something like that.
