The Voice Behind the Platform: Michael B. Norris

At the heart of TrendingAlone is its founder and lead writer, Michael B. Norris - a name familiar to tech readers who’ve followed his decade-long journey writing for various global publications.


“I started TrendingAlone because I was tired of reading tech articles that felt more like robot translations of press releases,” Norris says. “People want clarity, not confusion. We give them that.”

Norris brings not only experience but also a deeply personal commitment to making tech accessible. Every article goes through him or someone he’s trained - ensuring each post carries the platform’s signature tone: relatable, research-driven, and rooted in real-world value.

What Makes TrendingAlone Different?

There’s no shortage of tech content online. But TrendingAlone is different in some important ways:

✅ No Jargon. No Fluff.

We skip the confusing acronyms and unnecessary hype. Every article is written as if we’re explaining it to a friend - one who deserves the truth, not a sales pitch.

🧠 Expert Insight

Our team draw from first-hand experience, verified sources, and insider perspectives to produce thoughtful, balanced content.


“In an era of AI-generated noise, TrendingAlone is a welcome return to responsible tech journalism.”
- Arvind Mehra, Editor-at-Large, DigitalMediaWatch

🗣️ Real Voices, Real Readers

Our writers are people with opinions and personalities, and our readers know they’re being heard.


“Finally, a site that talks tech like a human. I don’t need a PhD to understand what I’m reading.”
- Rhea S., college student from Pune

Built on Trust: Our Editorial Promise

We don’t take your trust for granted. Everything we publish is guided by a few simple but powerful rules:


Original Research – Every article is built from scratch, based on verified facts, expert interviews, and hands-on reviews.


Balanced Reporting – We present all sides of a topic. If there’s debate, we show it. If there’s hype, we test it.


People First – We start every story by asking: What would help the reader the most?

We believe tech should empower, not confuse - and our editorial standards reflect that commitment every day.


“Michael has a rare gift for translating complexity into clarity. His writing reflects deep understanding and real-world insight.”
- Dr. Kavita Jain, Technology Ethics Researcher, IIT Delhi

Reader Feedback Shapes What We Publish

One of the most important things we’ve learned is this: tech readers are smart - and they’re paying attention. That’s why we read every message sent through our [Contact page], and we respond directly to feedback on Mastodon and Medium.

Some of our best-performing articles have come from reader requests. .


Following a surge of confusion around Android security updates, we released a clear, non-technical guide that got shared widely by student groups on Medium.


“I stopped reading big-name tech sites because they all felt the same. TrendingAlone is refreshingly honest.”
- Anil K., IT professional, Bengaluru

A Human Approach to Tech Writing

We don’t just explain what tech is - we help you understand why it matters and how it fits into your life.

How Our Process Works

We don’t just hit publish and move on. Here’s a peek at how we work:

🔍 Fact-Checking Comes First

We verify every claim, stat, and number. If we can’t trace a source back to something reliable, we don’t use it.

🧠 Expert Review

Every piece is reviewed by someone with hands-on experience in the topic. Whether it’s reviewing a phone, we lean on expertise.

🔄 Ongoing Updates

Tech changes fast - and so do we. Old articles are frequently updated, not forgotten.
Community Is at the Core

At TrendingAlone, we’re not just building a website - we’re building a community of curious, critical, tech-aware readers who want better information without the noise.

We invite conversations across platforms like Mastodon, where we're part of open-source discussions, and Medium, where many of our how-to guides and explainers reach new readers each week.
