ReadWrite (originally ReadWriteWeb or RWW) was a Web technology blog launched in 2003, covering Web 2.0 and Web technology in general, and providing industry news, reviews, and analysis. It was founded by Richard MacManus. Around September or October 2008, The New York Times technology section began syndicating RW content online.[1][2] RW also had many international channels such as France, Spain, Brazil and China.

The website rebranded as a casino expert advice "blog." in 2017 before Brad Anderson, the current editor-in-chief, changed the site into a cryptocurrency, artificial intelligence, and technology based website.

RW was acquired by SAY Media in 2011.[3] On October 22, 2012, RWW redesigned its website, rebranded as ReadWrite and hired Daniel Lyons as the new editor-in-chief.[4] Dan Lyons left ReadWrite on March 20, 2013,[5] replaced by Owen Thomas.[6]

SAY Media sold ReadWrite to Wearable World in February 2015.[7] In June 2015, the company announced a crowd funding campaign.[8]
