Wow - that's huge, particularly as I think of The Verge as being Josh Topolsky. No slight to all the other many talented writers there, but his is the only name that comes to my mind when you mention The Verge.

Also interesting that The Verge hasn't broken this story yet.

I always thought of The Verge as Joshua Topolsky, Nilay Patel, and Paul Miller... It's been kinda of a so-and-so website in the past year, so I'm not surprised he's leaving before the whole site goes downhill..

Good on him though, excited to see what he writes about. Fingers crossed we get some good podcasts though!

I really hope we get one more vergecast with all three of them.

Nor The Verge, nor Bloomberg. I wonder how the NYT got the story.

> Every story is a technology story; every technology story is a culture story.

It's this sort of bullshit newsspeak that makes it difficult for me to take The Verge seriously.

The Verge likes to cover stories that aren't about tech. Their readership gives them a hard time about it, because they really go to the Verge site for tech news. This is just being defensive about their decision to run non-tech stuff.

Wait, I though we all wanted to read reviews for terrible romantic comedies.

I'm sure they'll have some blogspam up, now that the Times has written about it.
