Good News, Everyone!

Six thousand, six hundred and sixty-two posts after I first started writing here at Gizmodo, I'm about to type the words that I never thought would ever dribble forth from my keyboard: I'm the new editor of Gizmodo. After working with Joel Johnson, John Biggs and Brian Lam all these years and absorbing all the lessons and insights about blogging they left in this sweat, tear and who-knows-what-else-stained Editor's hat, it's time for me to pick it up and shove my head in.

CES Separates the Wheat From the Chaff with Blogger and Press Badges

High drama at CES! Instead of all of us being united under the umbrella of "press," some of us were arbitrarily deemed "bloggers" and others "press." I'm press, but Chen is a blogger. We aren't sure exactly what the difference is, but I assume that the CES admins will force Chen to wait for me to write up stories dryly and then he'll link to them and add some sassy commentary. We refer to his badge as the "white badge of shame." Sorry Chen, you lowly blogger.

Monster Gizmodo Blogger Chen Quoted in NY Post

Big Media are starting to take notice of blogs such as the one you're reading right now, as evidenced by the New York Post citing our own Associate Editor Jason Chen. The monster Gizmodo blogger was sought out and quoted by the big-city newspaper in "Tech Wars," an article about how blogs are pretty much taking over the world. Said the awe-inspiring Chen about the speed with which we post up the big stories here at the Giz, and how we sometimes actually influence the big retailers:

"We jump on press releases really fast. The same day a press release comes out, we turn out a post analyzing what this means to the community." When Toshiba's HD-DVD player first dropped, "there were lots of problems," says Chen. "Because of all the blog reports, Toshiba had to get a firmware update out there faster than if the reviews came from magazines."

That's right, folks, the fat cats are starting to listen to us. Wonder why the New York Post had to refer to us as "tiny online bloggers." We're not so tiny any more! – Charlie White More »
