> TechCrunch As We Know It May Be Over

Nope, still dramatic and hyperbolic as ever!

Which, of course, is MG Siegler's style. That makes the tone of the article far less surprising than if it had originated from another writer.

A TechCrunch article about TechCrunch barely raises my eyebrows nowadays.

This one is different in the sense that this time the drama over at TechCrunch is actually about TechCrunch itself.

Not to sound silly, but contrast this to the usual techcrunch drama (and drama is overly normal over there): Techcrunch being upset that last.fm is calling them full of shit because Techcrunch had some sensationalistic news about last.fm which last.fm was not willing to confirm or deny within 10 minutes and so they went live with the story, unconfirmed, because that is what cutting edge journalism is, because people deserve to know what may or may not be there. Sort of. Wait. Why do people hate us all of a sudden?

That sort of drama. Demeaning to the mind and going at a constant rate over at techcrunch.com.

So... This is still techcrunch and it is still drama, but at least this time (maybe for the last time?) it's different. Feels refreshing, doesn't it?

dramatic, hyperbolic, AND pointless!

The title subtly implies TechCrunch may be over, but really it only says TechCrunch will change because of the "As We Know It" clause. You are losing a editor-in-chief, things will change, duh?
