Staff of AOL's Engadget Leaving en Masse

A large group of Engadget’s prominent editorial and technology staff members—led by the site’s former editor Joshua Topolsky—are leaving AOL to start a new gadget Web venue with sports site conglomerate SB Nation, according to The New York Times.
 
Topolsky, who left last month, felt that the Engadget team was being held back by AOL’s less-than-ideal management. “I thought we could be more successful elsewhere,” he said. The blog will likely continue to exist in some form at AOL, but for now, its most vital talent has sided with Topolsky.
