Car news site Autoblog celebrates 15th anniversary

Greg Migliore, the editor in chief of Autoblog, writes about its 15th anniversary and how it’s changing.

Migliore writes, “You might have noticed we spend a lot of time these days playing video games. Our twice-weekly live streams are a huge success, and we love the engagement and passion gamers bring to the Autoblog family.

“We’re always trying to figure out what’s next, which is why our annual Technology of the Year Award remains one of our pillars. The car industry is all about technology, more so than ever before. The only question: How it will change your life as a driver? The 2019 TOY winner, Cadillac’s Super Cruise, is a great example of something that was unfathomable in 2004, but is a feature that’s becoming expected in sophisticated cars.

“There’s so much more that we’ll be sharing in the weeks and months to come. If you love Autoblog and have been here from the start — thank you. If this is the first post you’ve ever clicked on, welcome to the car world. Stick around. Kick the tires. You won’t be disappointed. Autoblog is a living, breathing thing. It reinvents itself everyday. So what’s next?”
