Blogspam is very disingenuous. Phoronix covers a lot of content in the open source world that isn't well tracked elsewhere, and does some of the best and most comprehensive benchmarking of hardware and software you'll find anywhere on the internet.
yeah thats kinda harsh, phoronix is a good oss news aggregator at the very least, and the PTS is a huge boon for "whats the best bang for buck llvm build box" type of question (which is very useful!)
