TechSource started as a personal blog of Jun Auza (thus the domain name
junauza.com) in July 2007. He created the site to serve as a venue to chronicle his life's digital journey.
TechSource covers diverse topics related to technology. However, it mainly focuses on Linux, Android, and other open-source software-related stuff.
Considered by many as
one of the most popular Linux/FOSS sites on the planet, TechSource has appeared on the front pages of Digg, Reddit, Hacker News and other social networking sites. Some of its articles have also been featured on a number of influential sites like CNET, Engadget, Gizmodo, Lifehacker, Guardian.co.uk, Linux.com, Distrowatch, LinuxToday, and other not-so-famous but relevant sites and blogs. In its home country, the Philippines, junauza.com is ranked as one of the
top 50 blogs (#9) in 2010.

In late 2016, TechSource has stopped posting updates (
read here why) but still received good amount of visitors. In December 2018, I decided to revive the site by changing its design and infusing fresh contents for 2019.
