Gerald Lynch is the Editor-in-Chief of Shortlist, keeping careful watch over the site's editorial output and social channels. He's happiest in the front row of a gig for a band you've never heard of, watching 70mm cinema re-runs of classic sci-fi flicks, or propping up a bar with an old fashioned in one hand and a Game Boy in the other. Living in London in the UK, Gerald was previously Editor of Gizmodo UK, Executive Editor of TechRadar, Editor in Chief of iMore, and has travelled the world looking for the hottest products and innovations. Gerald is also a regularly contributing pundit for BBC Radio and in the past has written for T3, GamesRadar, Space.com, Real Homes, MacFormat, DIY, Tech Digest, Mirror.co.uk, Kotaku, Lifehacker, and many others. The author of 'Get Technology: Upgrade Your Future', published by Aurum Press, Gerald is a big reader, studying English Literature at Goldsmiths, University of London, plays guitar, and knows every shortcut on the London Underground. Gerald also holds a high-score Guinness world record on Tetris. Seriously.
