THE IT NEWSLETTER THAT PEOPLE ACTUALLY READ.

No spam, no nonsense, just tech news that doesn't suck. You can unsubscribe anytime (but we're betting you won't want to).

The ByteSize Difference

ByteSize is the newsletter that turned "delete without reading" into "hold my calls, I'm busy."

It's not just another tech newsletter clogging your inbox with breathless AI funding announcements and buzzword bingo. We deliver actual tech news, tool recommendations, career opportunities, and industry moves that IT professionals can use.

That's why we're the IT newsletter that actually gets read.

How it works

ByteSize is a weekly IT newsletter brought to you by the team at Experts Exchange.

Each Tuesday, we deliver carefully curated industry insights, practical analysis, and useful updates directly to your inbox—all with enough personality to make your morning stand-up meetings seem boring by comparison.

It'll be the smartest five minutes you spend each week (unless you're debugging that one line of code that's been haunting you since 2019).We explain complex tech news without making your eyes glaze over.

- We don't waste your time with fluff—it's a 5-minute read, max.
- We're written by real humans who understand both tech AND humor
- We respectfully decline to use the phrase "digital transformation journey"

What's in an issue?

News Roundup: Must-know tech headlines and why they matter. Like when we covered French hackers who demanded Schneider Electric pay $125,000 worth of actual baguettes, or Microsoft casually inventing a new state of matter while we're still figuring out Windows 11.

Tool Time: Battle-tested tools that enhance productivity. From CyberArk (the Eye of Sauron for your security team—except it's watching over your privileged accounts instead of hobbits) to Obsidian (your personal knowledge Death Star, but instead of destroying planets, it helps organize your thoughts).

Job Opportunities: Career moves worth your attention, carefully filtered to exclude those ghost job postings that Greenhouse revealed make up 22% of the market (corporate catfishing at its finest).

Industry Moves: Your weekly pulse check on mergers, acquisitions, big product launches, and executive shuffles. Did you catch Reddit's announcement that they're adding paid subreddits in 2025 (existing content stays free—but for a fee, you can argue *in style*)?
