Internet giant America Online has spun off a new sub-network brand, AOL Tech, that includes existing blogs such as the Engadget sites, Switched, and TUAW. Quoting the TechCrunch report:

Unike AOL Games, AOL Entertainment and other sub brands, AOL Tech is being branded without “AOL.” A new link on the AOL home page links to Switched, which will now syndicate in content from the other blogs in the network.
