==Career==
[[File:DavidPogue.png|thumb|Pogue in 2007]]
Pogue wrote for ''[[Macworld]]'' magazine from 1988&ndash;2000. His back-page column was called ''The Desktop Critic''. Pogue got his start writing books when ''Macworld'' owner [[International Data Group|IDG]] asked him to write ''Macs for Dummies'' to follow on the success of the first ''...[[For Dummies]]'' book, ''DOS For Dummies'', written by Dan Gookin.<ref name="Biography" />

Starting in November 2000, Pogue served as the personal-tech columnist ''[[The New York Times]]''; his column, "State of the Art," appeared each Thursday on the front page of the Business section. He also wrote "From the Desk of David Pogue," a tech-related opinion column sent to readers by e-mail. He also maintained a [[blog]] at nytimes.com called Pogue's Posts.

Pogue joined ''[[CBS News Sunday Morning]]'' as a correspondent since 2002, writing and hosting stories on technology, science, the environment, and show business.

From 2007 to 2011, Pogue appeared on CNBC's ''Power Lunch'' in a taped, three-minute comic tech review, which then appeared on the ''New York Times'' website, nytimes.com, as well as [[iTunes]], [[YouTube]], [[TiVo]], and [[JetBlue]].

In 2007, the [[Discovery HD]] and [[The Science Channel|Science]] channels aired his six-episode series, ''[[It's All Geek to Me]]'', a how-to show about consumer technology.

From 2010 to 2019, Pogue wrote a monthly column for ''[[Scientific American]]'' called "Techno Files."

He hosted a four-part PBS ''Nova'' miniseries about materials science called "Making Stuff," which aired on four consecutive Wednesdays starting January 19, 2011, on PBS.<ref name=PBS /> It was followed by a two-hour special about the periodic table, "Hunting the Elements," which aired April 4, 2012.<ref name=NOVA /> He hosted a further series, "Making More Stuff," on ''Nova'' in 2013.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/tech/making-more-stuff.html |title=NOVA {{!}} Making More Stuff |website=[[PBS]] |access-date=15 November 2013}}</ref>

Taking up where "'Hunting the Elements' left off, Pogue hosted a three-part PBS ''Nova'' series 'Beyond the Elements'," about how key molecules and chemical reactions paved the way for life on earth, including humans and their civilizations. The series aired on February 3, 2021.<ref>[https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/series/beyond-elements/ "Beyond the Elements".] ''NOVA''.  PBS.org.  Retrieved 18 February 2021.</ref>

Pogue's December 2022 report for ''CBS Sunday Morning'', which questioned the safety of the ''[[Titan (submersible)|Titan]]'' [[submersible]], went viral on social media after the submersible [[Titan submersible implosion|went missing in June 2023]] with five people onboard.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Kanter |first=Jake |date=20 June 2023 |title=CBS Story On OceanGate's Missing Titanic Sub Goes Viral After Reporter David Pogue Got Jitters Over Its "Jerry-Rigged" Design |url=https://deadline.com/2023/06/cbs-oceangate-titanic-submarine-viral-david-pogue-safety-concerns-1235420540/ |access-date=20 June 2023 |website=Deadline |language=en-US}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |last=Panella |first=Chris |title=Maker of the lost Titanic sub once told a reporter that 'at some point, safety is just pure waste' |url=https://www.insider.com/missing-titanic-sub-ceo-told-reporter-safety-pure-waste-2023-6 |access-date=2023-06-21 |website=Insider |language=en-US}}</ref>

Pogue is a frequent speaker at educational and government conferences, addressing such topics as disruptive technology, [[social media]], [[digital photography]], and why products fail.<ref>{{cite web|last=Pogue|first=David|title=Pogue's Pages|url=http://www.davidpogue.com/bio_photos/speaking.html|work=Speaking Inquiries|publisher=David Pogue|access-date=27 November 2011|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20111126174412/http://www.davidpogue.com/bio_photos/speaking.html|archive-date=26 November 2011|url-status=dead}}</ref> He has performed three times at [[TED (conference)|TED]] conferences: in 2006, a 20-minute talk about simplicity; in 2007, a medley of high-tech song parodies at the piano (or, as Pogue joked, "a tedley,"); and in 2013, offering tips everyone should know ("a driver's ed for tech").<ref name="TED: David Pogue on the music wars">{{cite web|title = David Pogue on the music wars|author=TED|date=24 January 2008 |url =https://www.ted.com/talks/david_pogue_on_the_music_wars}}</ref><ref name=TED2013>{{cite web|title=David Pogue at TED U|url=https://www.flickr.com/photos/tedconference/8517509550/in/set-72157632867963776|work=TED2013|date=28 February 2013 |publisher=Flickr|access-date=2 April 2013}}</ref> In 2008, he performed at the EG conference, also in Monterey, talking about cellphones, the tricks they can be made to do, and how the phones are often better than the companies that market them.

==Consumer advocacy==
In July 2009, Pogue launched "Take Back the Beep."<ref name="Take Back Beep NYT">{{cite news  |last=Pogue |first=David |title='Take Back the Beep' Campaign  |url=http://pogue.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/07/30/the-mandatory-15-second-voicemail-instructions/ |newspaper=The New York Times |date=30 July 2009 |access-date=23 May 2012 |url-access=limited}}</ref> The campaign was designed to raise consumer awareness about American cellphone carriers’ mandatory 15-second voice mail instructions. Pogue wrote that the instructions are unnecessary, as most everyone knows "what to do at the beep."<ref name="Take Back Beep NYT" /> However, because consumers can’t easily turn the instructions off (if at all), the instructions eat into consumers’ voice plan minutes. "I calculated that if Verizon’s 87 million customers leave or check messages twice each business day, that comes out to $750 million of air time a year — your money and your time, listening to pointless instructions over and over again."<ref name="Will Carriers? NYT">{{cite news|last=Pogue|first=David|title=Will Carriers Offer a Better Way to Get Voice Mail?|url=http://pogue.blogs.nytimes.com/2010/02/18/will-carriers-offer-a-better-way-to-get-voicemail/  |newspaper=The New York Times|date=18 February 2010|access-date=23 May 2012 |url-access=limited}}</ref> Pogue explained how consumers could bypass the voice mail instructions,  encouraged readers to complain about the practice to their carriers, and provided links where they could file complaints.<ref name="Take Back Beep II">{{cite news|last=Pogue|first=David|title=Take Back The Beep, Part II|url=http://pogue.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/07/31/take-back-the-beep-part-ii/|access-date=23 May 2012|newspaper=The New York Times|date=31 July 2009 |url-access=limited}}</ref> Other media outlets reported on the "Take Back the Beep" campaign, including radio stations and blogs such as [[Gizmodo]], [[Engadget]], [[The Consumerist]], and Technologizer.<ref name="Take Back Beep II" /> As a result of the "Take Back the Beep" campaign, [[AT&T Wireless|AT&T]] shortened its voicemail instructions to eight seconds down from 12 or 15, though no other carriers followed suit<ref name="AT&T Relents">{{cite news|last=Pogue|first=David|title=AT&T Relents, Drops Paging Instructions from Voicemail|url=http://pogue.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/09/09/att-relents-drops-paging-instructions-from-voicemail/|access-date=23 May 2012|newspaper=The New York Times|date=9 September 2009 |url-access=limited}}</ref> and [[Verizon Wireless]] did not respond to the campaign.<ref name="Verizon NYT">{{cite news|last=Pogue|first=David|title=Verizon: How Much Do You Charge Now?|url=http://pogue.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/11/12/verizon-how-much-do-you-charge-now/|access-date=23 May 2012|newspaper=The New York Times|date=12 November 2009 |url-access=limited}}</ref>

In November 2009, Pogue reported on a Verizon customer’s complaint that the wireless carrier charged $1.99 for "bogus data downloads" every time an internet connection was established, even if the user did not intend to use the connection. The practice was validated by a reader who claimed to work for Verizon.<ref name="Verizon NYT" /> The charge resulted whenever a Verizon customer touched the up-arrow key on some Verizon phones. The key is easy to hit accidentally and is preprogrammed by Verizon to launch the mobile Web, causing the consumer to incur a $1.99 data charge each time the key is pressed.<ref name="Verizon NYT" />  As a result of Pogue’s reportage, the [[Federal Communications Commission]] (FCC) asked Verizon to explain the data charge.<ref name="Verzion Comes Clean">{{cite news|last=Pogue|first=David|title=Verizon Comes Clean|url=http://pogue.blogs.nytimes.com/2010/10/04/verizon-comes-clean/|access-date=23 May 2012|newspaper=The New York Times|date=4 October 2010 |url-access=limited}}</ref> In October 2010, in response to the FCC inquiry, Verizon agreed to pay up to $90 million in refunds to 15 million customers "wrongly charged for data sessions or Internet use," one of the largest refunds by a telecommunications company.<ref name="Verizon Pays Millions">{{cite news|last=Wyatt|first=Edward|title=Verizon Wireless to Pay Millions in Refunds|url=https://www.nytimes.com/2010/10/04/technology/04webphone.html?_r=1|access-date=23 May 2012|newspaper=The New York Times|date=3 October 2010 |url-access=limited}}</ref>

== Conflict of interest and other issues ==
In a 2005 ''New York Times'' review of a [[hard drive]] recovery service, Pogue noted that the service, which can cost from $500 to $2,700, was provided to him at no charge for the purposes of the review;<ref name="Can You Save a Hard Drive?">{{cite news|title = Can You Save a Hard Drive?|author=David Pogue|url =https://www.nytimes.com/2005/09/01/technology/circuits/01POGUE-EMAIL.html | work=The New York Times | date=September 1, 2005 | access-date=May 1, 2010 |url-access=limited}}</ref> but when describing the service for [[National Public Radio]]'s ''[[Morning Edition]]'' program on September 12, 2005,<ref name="The Cost of a Story: Who Pays?">{{cite web|author=Jeffrey A. Dvorkin|title = The Cost of a Story: Who Pays?| website=NPR | date=15 March 2006 |url = https://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=5281529 | access-date=2007-07-05}}</ref> he neglected to mention this. NPR's Vice President of News Bill Marimow later stated that NPR should have either not aired the review or paid for the services itself.<ref name="The Cost of a Story: Who Pays?"/> Ultimately, the ''Times'' paid for the service.<ref name="Can You Save a Hard Drive?"/>

In September 2009, Pogue's ''New York Times'' review of the Snow Leopard Macintosh operating system, a product for which he had also authored a ''[[Missing Manual]]'' book, was the subject of a column by ''The Times''{{'}} Public Editor [[Clark Hoyt]].<ref name=Hoyt>{{cite news|last=Hoyt|first=Clark|title=He Works for The Times, Too|url=https://www.nytimes.com/2009/09/06/opinion/06pubed.html|access-date=6 December 2011|newspaper=The New York Times|date=5 September 2009 |url-access=limited}}</ref> Hoyt wrote that Pogue's "multiple interests and loyalties raise interesting ethical issues."<ref name=Hoyt /> Of three ethicists Hoyt consulted, each agreed Pogue's position created a "clear conflict of interest" and placed the paper on "tricky ethical terrain." In response, Pogue posted a statement of ethics on his ''Times'' Topics page<ref name="Disclosure note">{{cite web|last=Pogue|first=David|title=A Note About Ethics and Disclosure|url=https://www.nytimes.com/ref/technology/poguedisclosure.html|work=The New York Times|access-date=6 December 2011 |url-access=limited}}</ref> and a disclosure was added to his Snow Leopard review on ''The Times''{{'}} web site.<ref name=Hoyt />

In June 2011, Pogue gave a presentation at the Media Relations Summit sponsored by Ragan Communications in which he offered advice to PR professionals on how to successfully pitch him.<ref name=Brisbane>{{cite news|last=Brisbane|first=Arthur S.|title=Times curbs Pogue's P.R. appearances|url=http://publiceditor.blogs.nytimes.com/2011/07/06/times-curbs-pogues-pr-appearances/|access-date=1 December 2011|newspaper=The New York Times|date=6 July 2011 |url-access=limited}}</ref> Arthur S. Brisbane, ''The New York Times''{{'}} reader representative, subsequently wrote that the paper’s ethics policy states staff members and freelancers on assignment "may not advise individuals or organizations how to deal successfully with the news media."<ref name=Brisbane /> Though Pogue is not a ''Times'' staff member and was not on assignment, an internal review determined that his presentation was not appropriate.<ref name=Brisbane /> In an email to Brisbane about the matter, Pogue wrote that in the future, "my speaking agent will now present every offer to my [''Times''] editor and me simultaneously."<ref name=Brisbane />

==Awards==
In 2004, Pogue won a Business [[Emmy]] as the correspondent for two ''[[CBS News Sunday Morning]]'' stories about [[Google]] and [[Spam (electronic)|spam]] for taking "complex technological applications such as Google or Spam and [making] them comprehensible to the ordinary, non-technophile viewer."<ref name=Emmy>{{cite web|title=The National Television Academy Announces the Winners of the Second Annual Emmy Awards for Business and Financial Reporting|url=http://www.emmyonline.org/emmy/2ndBizEmmyWinners.html|publisher=National Television Academy|access-date=May 23, 2012|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120205093801/http://www.emmyonline.org/emmy/2ndBizEmmyWinners.html|archive-date=February 5, 2012}}</ref>
