They cover subjects that are computer and gadget oriented, usually pointing you to new ways of doing the same things or new things altogether.

They have a section called &#8220;Cool Websites and Tools&#8221;. This is great for discovering new websites and/or tools that have recently been launched or are hot topics. Here is a snapshot of my Feedly page on MakeUseOf:
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://tech-n-life.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/feedly-snippit.JPG"><img class="size-medium wp-image-1018    aligncenter" title="feedly snippit" src="http://tech-n-life.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/feedly-snippit-300x271.jpg" alt="feedly snippit" width="300" height="271" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">They did an article recently on finding online libraries and maybe the better ones. Worth a read if your a bookworm. Catch it here &#8211; <a href="http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/3-inspiring-virtual-libraries-for-avid-readers-book-lovers/" target="_blank">MUO &#8211; Library Article</a></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Or this one made me smile &#8211; <a title="Permanent Link to Find What Happens To Your Email  and Social Networking Accounts When You Die?" rel="bookmark" href="http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/what-happens-to-your-email-and-social-networking-sites-when-you-die/">Find What Happens To Your  Email and Social Networking Accounts When You Die?</a></p>
<div id="in_post_ad_middle_1" style="margin: 5px;padding: 0px;"><script type="text/javascript"><!--
google_ad_client = "pub-8350415631214616";
google_ad_slot = "2064052456";
google_ad_width = 468;
google_ad_height = 60;
//--></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js"></script></div><p style="text-align: left;">Finally another great feature of the site, is their How To section. They are all in PDF&#8217;s and written really well.  Here are some examples:</p>
